sooo... what does this doooo exactly i have an idea i like its open source. (under GPL?) im going to check your channel to see if u have anything on there for what programs u recomend for making these things with it. i want to know (don't think ill practice making a game yet but im so cuirious abt videogames). :)
almost the whole video he shows basic shaders implying it has something to do with the 3d engine and it's not just hand-written shaders you feed almost directly to the 3d card...
the real stuff you should know is about dynamic lights, shadows, space partitioning, material management etc.
i have an important question to ask, i'm going to download and install ogre 3d. can i import models with it animations and rigs from blender into ogre 3d and put the model in the level? if yes, please tell me how to. please reply.
@PogoMods yes, anything that you can do in any engine can be handled in ogre, the thing with ogre is that its a little more hardcore programming wise than other engines
@purdyjo Is very hard.. For now i have loaded 2 models created by me in 3ds max with textures.. and it works! Where is the Update function? I mean in the script.. I want to script the gameplay.
@PogoMods well, theres a function that you can override in your framework that is called frameRenderingQueued(const Ogre::FrameEvent& frmEvt) that handles a lot of your current frame captures for mouse and keyboard etc, you could technically do it there, or you could create a function that calls your ogre::Root->RenderOneFrame() function and handle everything in there
I tried OpenGL and I go for Dark gdk now I look for more tutorial to make my own fps game but the tutorial are poor and rare.(I know c++ I allready make browser,calculator etc..)
there is no way to even compare both , ogre wins at every level !
Graphics : Ogre is always updated with better graphics than darkGDK , and i won't be lying if i said that it's about 20 times faster even with such pretty graphics !
compatibility:
ogre supports windows , linux ,mac--there is even an iPhone port !
Easy to use :
this really goes back to you , it might be "easier" to understand DarkGDK , but it's much easier to work with ogre when u understand it !
Be that as it may PW, but I think Unity3D would be your best bet at making a worthwhile game these days. Since it is extreamly userfriendly and simple to understand. You really just have to know the most basic of scriptcoding to start making your own game, and also there is a wide community to help you out with lots and LOTS of tutorials to get you started. Go check it out(although many of the first tutorials are outdated now that 3.3 is out you can still learn alot)
how much of this did you yourself make? like did you make the models, textures coding and so on or is it more of a drag and drop type thing, what level of expirience does this take?
@magnadox no he's not made any of it, its apart of the ogre sdk all the models and stuff. Its not too hard to learn though go to the website and the ogre wiki to learn more ;)
@superkellerman8D Blender is not for noobs. Blender 3D is a very proffesional modeling software even a very good complement for OGRE 3D because you need 3D models for your game.
@HGRiot Ogre itself is not an application like Microsoft Word. Its core is a software development kit (bunch of files) which you can use with a program like Visual Studio. These files contain pieces of code and ways to access them with coding syntax which you can use to speed up a game development.
Wow :) I used Ogre back when it was pretty new, and it was impressive then. These visuals are truly awesome - AAA would be an understatement :) Absolutely gorgeous, especially the "ocean shader".
@HumanIceTea - there is an iPhone version of the engine :) Search "ogre3d" (no spaces) in Google.
OGRE is an open source license. "Open source licenses are also commonly free, allowing for modification, redistribution, and commercial use without having to pay the original author." read their LICENSE FAQ on their website. it will tell you more...but it's free and you can sell your game built off their engine...you will need to mention you used their engine but thats it...nothing more.
Just sort of begun getting into game creation; so far I've tried out UDK for a short while and Game Maker. Curious about Ogre3D, how accessible is it to a newbie, and how powerful is it for a wide range of game styles?(from a shooter game to something more in depth)
@MrSean490 its an engine and preatty much has everything you will need to make any kind of game, its up to you to program it, model it, etc.
Basically you will need 3D graphic modeling skills and wide C++ knowledge
Currently im working on a cross plataform fantasy MMORPG also using POCO library, where im working on the programing side i have friends working on the 3D stuff, models, charactaers, motions etc.
For some reason it won' t let me use ogre3d after Ive downloaded it, it just sits there, only thing its lets me do is extract it, and go through the files
Ogre is awesome, especially for a free, open source project. I was going to experiment with it when I get my video card. It isn't really as easy to use as Irrlicht or Game Maker (yes, GM has 3d add-ons), but it has good documentation, and it's gorgeous.
Ogre3D i possible the best Graphics Engine out there. Maybe not the best looking, but thanks to the great variaty of features and easyness to use, it's the best!

i wish i could get my head around Ogre's SDK, seems overboard for creating simple 3d games, not to mention i cant figure out how i would create a map with custom entities with it.
If you have the money Ogre has an Exporter for Maya 8.5. but if you dont you should consider Blender3d. The Actual maps are not made in any modelling package you use other packages like Photoshop. The onlything you need a Modeling Packcge for with Textures is setting the UV Coordinates for the Model. Milkshape 3d is also supported in the Exporter tools for Ogre3D. I use Maya my self and 3Ds Max 8.
For games you would have to do it with in the game engine. Its pretty simple, if you have Photoshop you are able to make your Diffuse Map ( the regular texture ) into a Normal Map with a Plug in that Nvidia has for free.
I wonder how much of these special effects are actually in ogre 3d and how much needs to be programmed. Meaning how much work does it take in ogre 3d to accomplish these special effects?
Wow, i started going through the tutorials, amazing library.
I'm in love.
One thing i really appreciate is that it provides textures and models already, so that I dont have to worry about modelling and texture designing while I am learning the library. Can focus solely on the programming part.
how easy it is to get into Ogre3D? I mean can I understand the program, can I use it easily? I'm new into graphics and I got a tutorial book on ogre3d but i want to know if I need some skill before trying to use this program.
I think that if you want to start from somewhere, don't start from Ogre, it's too much hardcoding for a beginner. But if you are an C++ expert then Ogre is the best choice ^^
@blackZ34all is not a program its a library, this means you need programing skills and wide knowledge of C++ even tho you can use other languages, in graphics stuff C++ is the only way to do it right.
Is this engine able to be used with python? Y'see, I've never been able to program much and had a horrific experience with attempting to grasp C++ right away. I'm going to take a Python class at my local college soon, and I was wondering if this would be a good engine with which to make basic games and exercise my newly acquired skills? Or is it only practical with vast C++ knowledge? Thank you in advance for a reply.
I'm not sure. I've got no programming experience; I'm not interested in it. I posted this video, using the official demos, to show a friend (who's making a game) what the engine can do, as he was too lazy to install the demos.
You can ask that question on the Ogre forums though. I'm sure that it will be answered quickly and correctly.
I believe it can be used with python. I wanted to do that myself at one point, but you must realize using any language with ogre3d, its a steep learning curve. Its a pretty advanced graphics engine.
Ok enough of discouragement. You will have to find a python port for ogre3d.
Also to use python, you can only use those addons to ogre3d, such as physics engine, that also have a port in python.
By python port i mean, someone wraps the c++ stuff and makes a nice interface for python users.
There's a Python wrapper available -- it's not considered ready for developer use, but it works as far as I know... I just do the C++ thang.
Also in general as far as Python -- yes it's a nice language that's also much "easier" than C++, but when it comes to resource managment and stuff like that, C++ and other languages like it win out. When learning your first language you shouldn't need to worry about stuff like that, but later on you might care more about it.
What do you mean by 'resource management'? The only problem Python has, as far as i know, is performance. C++ is a lot faster. But Python is great for prototyping.
All programming languages are based on parsing text files, be it C, C++ or Python. Python is interpreted, however, which means it's never compiled in native code, and that the source code always remains in its text form.
Lua is very good for scripting because it's integration with C code is supposedly simple and it's also surprisingly fast for an interpreted language.
@ArcangelZero7 I'm not sure if anyone has answered your question yet, but I'll answer it anyway just to be safe :)
You can use Python with Ogre3d via the Python wrapper for Ogre, PyOgre. Look it up at ogre3d . org / wiki/ index . php / Python-Ogre . Hope this helps.
@ArcangelZero7 there's Python bindings available. of course, for high speed realtime graphics you may not be able to achieve the same results you can achieve with fast, optimised, compiled C++ code. but it may be a good way to get bootstrapped fast if you already know Python
DMM? As in Digital Molecular Matter? Absolutely not, Ogre 3D is a graphics enigne exclusively. The physics engine traditionally used with Ogre is ODE, but I don't think that it has DMM.
yes DMM,its even listed on the Pixelux website so i would like to see that xD (i don't know anything about programming and stuff im just into Physics engines and stuff)
The OGRE forums may be able to help you. But you should be a reasonably good C++ programmer before using OGRE. This includes being able to use tools like IDEs.
Yes; that's really its sole purpose... assuming that "games" is broadened to include anything from basic realtime graphics to interactive, complex 3-dimensional levels with AI, character rigs, etc.
I think I've got it right, at least. I'm not an expert on this stuff, though.
Schoasch1995-- I think there's a bit of a language difference (not sure how the modules people have made change that), but besides taht, they're just two different programs for similar purposes. Not having used Leadwerks, and being only a little familiar with OGRE, I'd say it's just a matter of what you need and a matter of opinion. I'm sure they have different "feels" I mean.
Yeah, and the part where the guy in the song starts up the gibberish. I mean it's not like OMBZ TAHT"S HILARIOUS funny, but enough to make me want to find the song. Anyone know?
Yeah, I like gibberish in songs a lot :) and the song is very cool, but that hip hop part at 0:48 ruined it for me :(
Nno offense to hip hop fans but I just can't ORGANICALLY stand hip hop...my ears are melting and my brain is exploding whenever I hear hip hop and especially when I watch them gesticulate with their hands while they rap...I just CAN'T stand it, again, no offense to people who listen it....
damn, imagine an FPS that uses only heat vision rendering :D

If you have the money Ogre has an Exporter for Maya 8.5. but if you dont you should consider Blender3d. The Actual maps are not made in any modelling package you use other packages like Photoshop. The onlything you need a Modeling Packcge for with Textures is setting the UV Coordinates for the Model. Milkshape 3d is also supported in the Exporter tools for Ogre3D. I use Maya my self and 3Ds Max 8.

So, where do i set the normal maps to the Model??
Thank you for anwsers :)
Finjuri 2 years ago
For games you would have to do it with in the game engine. Its pretty simple, if you have Photoshop you are able to make your Diffuse Map ( the regular texture ) into a Normal Map with a Plug in that Nvidia has for free.

Im sorry to bother u with this :D, but do i have to put the coordinates for the normal maps in the game engine?

I wonder how much of these special effects are actually in ogre 3d and how much needs to be programmed. Meaning how much work does it take in ogre 3d to accomplish these special effects?
sadgreen 2 years ago
Built in -- of course you can make your own too.

Wow, i started going through the tutorials, amazing library.
I'm in love.
One thing i really appreciate is that it provides textures and models already, so that I dont have to worry about modelling and texture designing while I am learning the library. Can focus solely on the programming part.
I cant wait to put this on my resume, hehe.
sadgreen 2 years ago
Most of these Special effects get shiped with Ogre3D. This video is showing you the Actual Sample programs that Ogre3D has with complete source code.

how easy it is to get into Ogre3D? I mean can I understand the program, can I use it easily? I'm new into graphics and I got a tutorial book on ogre3d but i want to know if I need some skill before trying to use this program.
blackZ34all 2 years ago
Skill would help, but I assume that you can learn everything as you're doing the tutuorial book.
theguymjp 2 years ago
I think that if you want to start from somewhere, don't start from Ogre, it's too much hardcoding for a beginner. But if you are an C++ expert then Ogre is the best choice ^^
Finjuri 2 years ago
Then what would be good for a beginner like me?
I must learn alot before I'm even half-way to "betterbeginner" as I call it.
RickRay9 2 years ago
I can recommend Apocalyx, it's really easy to use. It uses the Lua scripting language, just like Crysis.
sourcerror 2 years ago
@blackZ34all is not a program its a library, this means you need programing skills and wide knowledge of C++ even tho you can use other languages, in graphics stuff C++ is the only way to do it right.

Is this engine able to be used with python? Y'see, I've never been able to program much and had a horrific experience with attempting to grasp C++ right away. I'm going to take a Python class at my local college soon, and I was wondering if this would be a good engine with which to make basic games and exercise my newly acquired skills? Or is it only practical with vast C++ knowledge? Thank you in advance for a reply.

I'm not sure. I've got no programming experience; I'm not interested in it. I posted this video, using the official demos, to show a friend (who's making a game) what the engine can do, as he was too lazy to install the demos.
You can ask that question on the Ogre forums though. I'm sure that it will be answered quickly and correctly.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
theguymjp 2 years ago
I believe it can be used with python. I wanted to do that myself at one point, but you must realize using any language with ogre3d, its a steep learning curve. Its a pretty advanced graphics engine.
Ok enough of discouragement. You will have to find a python port for ogre3d.
Also to use python, you can only use those addons to ogre3d, such as physics engine, that also have a port in python.
By python port i mean, someone wraps the c++ stuff and makes a nice interface for python users.
sadgreen 2 years ago
There's a Python wrapper available -- it's not considered ready for developer use, but it works as far as I know... I just do the C++ thang.
Also in general as far as Python -- yes it's a nice language that's also much "easier" than C++, but when it comes to resource managment and stuff like that, C++ and other languages like it win out. When learning your first language you shouldn't need to worry about stuff like that, but later on you might care more about it.
apologiate07 2 years ago
Thanks a ton for the input! :) I appreciate it greatly ^_^
ArcangelZero7 2 years ago
What do you mean by 'resource management'? The only problem Python has, as far as i know, is performance. C++ is a lot faster. But Python is great for prototyping.
amenzix 2 years ago
I mean what you just said -- Python runs slower... it's a vis a vis thing.
apologiate07 2 years ago
In that case, sorry, I wasn't sure what you meant. I'm a bit religious about Python :P.
amenzix 2 years ago
@amenzix Python is just a fork, isn't it?
NakedCreep 2 years ago
A fork of what?
cristicbz 2 years ago
@cristicbz its like Lua.
It parses a simple text file.
NakedCreep 2 years ago
(cristicbz is amenzix's new account)
All programming languages are based on parsing text files, be it C, C++ or Python. Python is interpreted, however, which means it's never compiled in native code, and that the source code always remains in its text form.
Lua is very good for scripting because it's integration with C code is supposedly simple and it's also surprisingly fast for an interpreted language.
cristicbz 2 years ago
@ArcangelZero7 I'm not sure if anyone has answered your question yet, but I'll answer it anyway just to be safe :)
You can use Python with Ogre3d via the Python wrapper for Ogre, PyOgre. Look it up at ogre3d . org / wiki/ index . php / Python-Ogre . Hope this helps.

@ArcangelZero7 there's Python bindings available. of course, for high speed realtime graphics you may not be able to achieve the same results you can achieve with fast, optimised, compiled C++ code. but it may be a good way to get bootstrapped fast if you already know Python

i hear ogre has DMM i would love to see some demonstrations of that
Benjii720 2 years ago
DMM? As in Digital Molecular Matter? Absolutely not, Ogre 3D is a graphics enigne exclusively. The physics engine traditionally used with Ogre is ODE, but I don't think that it has DMM.
amenzix 2 years ago
yes DMM,its even listed on the Pixelux website so i would like to see that xD (i don't know anything about programming and stuff im just into Physics engines and stuff)

The OGRE forums may be able to help you. But you should be a reasonably good C++ programmer before using OGRE. This includes being able to use tools like IDEs.

imafirinmehlazor 2 years ago
I can't, but it's meant for game making, so if you had the skills you could.
theguymjp 2 years ago
Yes; that's really its sole purpose... assuming that "games" is broadened to include anything from basic realtime graphics to interactive, complex 3-dimensional levels with AI, character rigs, etc.
I think I've got it right, at least. I'm not an expert on this stuff, though.
madlutist 2 years ago
Yes, it's mainly for games, but you can do any 3d graphics rendering with it, pretty much, like cinematics if you wanted.

is Ogre 3d better than Leadwerks?
Schoasch1995 2 years ago
yes, if an apricot is better than an avocado.
aamesxdavid 2 years ago 2
Schoasch1995-- I think there's a bit of a language difference (not sure how the modules people have made change that), but besides taht, they're just two different programs for similar purposes. Not having used Leadwerks, and being only a little familiar with OGRE, I'd say it's just a matter of what you need and a matter of opinion. I'm sure they have different "feels" I mean.
FireRupee 2 years ago
Actually there are some significant limitations and differences; I suggest you just read about them on Wikipedia or Google or something, lol.
And does anyone know why Youtube glitches and puts responses NOT where they're supposed to be?

Nno offense to hip hop fans but I just can't ORGANICALLY stand hip hop...my ears are melting and my brain is exploding whenever I hear hip hop and especially when I watch them gesticulate with their hands while they rap...I just CAN'T stand it, again, no offense to people who listen it....
