Mogre GUI

I am using the Mogre 1.4.6 SDK and had some trouble with CEGUI. I found this article about Mogre CEGUI, which basically states CEGUI is broken.

I still don't have a mouse cursor, so I've decided to download MQuickGUI source & compile it. Binaries would have been nice...

Are there any plans to include a functional GUI in Mogre 1.4.7 SDK?

I can't help you, but thanks for telling the problem points.

At the moment, I think nothing like that is planned. But that's Marioko's task.

MQuickGUI is working generally but still has some small bugs. Unfortunately the porter has stopped developing it.

I compiled MQuickGUI into binaries and have scrounged most of the files needed to make everything work. I'd like to upload the binaries and media files somewhere for others to enjoy. I don't have my own server. Any suggestions on where/how to upload binaries for MQuickGUI?

I am currently working on the wrapper of Navi library
(which effectively embeds XULRunner - Gecko 1.8 engine - same as in Firefox 2.0).
It is already somewhat functional.

I will of course provide source code when it's done (expect it to be another couple of weekends).

nice.. when its done if you want i can upload that wrapper to MOGRE svn repository

MQuickGUI is in stand by, I am out of time. But I can provide some guidelines or assistance.

Feel free to contact me, I do the initial port from QuickGUI (C++ code) to Mogre.

Darby, are still working on the Navi library wrapper?
Is it ready or maybe you stopped the project?

Generally - which GUI systems use the other Mogre users?

i use Hikari, since it allow to use flash directly within ogre, it still young but it's already usable for some basic gui stuff.

Oh, very nice
And the demo is still compiled (thanks).

I wanted to go to bed, but now I created a page in wiki.
Feel free to add information to the Mogre section.
If needed we also can create a page just for Hikari for Mogre

Whoa, that's truly awesome!
Keep up the good work!

There is a also an other new GUI system for Ogre that sounds very interesting.
Its name is buttonGUI.

More informations, screen shots and downloads are here:
www.ogre3d.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=44426

If maybe somebody like to port it, please tell us.

Or maybe it's better to write a wrapper for a compiled dll file of buttonGUI?
Would it be more or less work to do?
I suppose the advantage would be a more easy update. For a new version you only need the compiled library and update the public members.
What's about this idea?

There is a WPF framework for Mogre that is functional but the performance is somewhat lacking. http://www.codeproject.com/KB/WPF/OgreInTheWpf.aspx

The bottom line is that there is no efficient way to hook into the WPF window. Winforms lets you hook into the window handle and that is all that is needed. WPF however is not that simple and you have to use a render to texture from ogre to display in a WPF image. If you render directly to the window all of the gui elements are overwritten. Why must you torture us microsoft!

Also with the dual threaded nature I can't see WPF being a good candidate for an Ogre game gui. Still, this is one way to get a cutting edge gui into Mogre.

The is a new GUI available for Mogre, called Miyagi.
It's an improvement of MButtonGUI.

Miyagi related questions please ask only in this thread.

Hi,
I am new mogre , we are using ;

mogre SDK 1.7.1 ,
.NET Framework 4.0

I am searching Mogre GUI which works on above features, Is there any suggestion about this topic? I am trying Hikari but It didnt work on MOGRE 1.7.1 and .NET 4.0 .

I am waiting for your suggestions, thanks....

A good example for a newcomer request - nice would be to have a Miyagi demo in the SDK

For .NET 4.0 maybe it's needed to recompile the miyagi.dll library.
I suppose, developer smiley80 uses .NET 2.0 did publish Miyagi only as .NET 2.0 library.

I'm currently using a slightly extended version of MyGUI with their C++/CLI wrapper. It's a very good GUI system and the .NET bindings work very well. You can even use their layout editor and use the GUI layouts easily. I'm too busy right now to write detailed instructions on how to get it work but I can offer to post a patch in unified diff format with my changes and some lines of example code.

I created the wiki page Mogre MyGUI wrapper.
It would be nice when somebody add some Mogre specific information.
At least where to get the wrapper sources/binaries.

mytoyke - your wrote you modified the wrapper.
Where did you find the original? I didn't found it in the wiki nor in the forum.

Take a look at http://mygui.info/ you can find their repository in the download area of their site.
All wrapper code is in their repository, it's part of the MyGUI project. I just changed some little things that allowed me to use it more intuitively.
