Welcome. Feel free to ask questions here if you have any. Also you can chat with us on IRC in the #CrystalSpace channel at Freenode.net

Greetings,

What happens if you run 'jam csjava'? Do you get any errors? That should compile the scripting plugin needed for this to work.

Greetings,

After installing the cgtoolkit you must configure and build CS again so that it knows the new module is there.

Greetings,

What information do you want? You should be able to find everything you need on that site. There are tutorials there and documentation. So what do you need in particular?

Greetings,

Crystal Space doesn't use BSP's for rendering so bsp maps are not compatible. The best way to make maps for Crystal Space is with Blender. Blender is supported very well through the popular blender2crystal utility.

Greetings,

Hmm.. It works fine for me. Make sure you have no extra version of CS that is installed on your system that may be confusing things. Also perhaps try to install swig, configure CS again and maybe do 'jam bindings' after building.

Greetings,

I don't know how to do this with Code::Blocks. As to the linking flags you can get those from the cs-config utility that is compiled with CS.  Try to run ./cs-config -help to get help.

About the running error. That's normal. CS needs to know where it can load its shared libraries. To solve that you have to expand the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable with the path where libcrystalspace-1.4.so is located.

Greetings,

Don't use 'jam install' on windows. Just use 'jam' and then run the CS stuff from within the CS dirs itself. If you need external programs that have to find CS then use the CRYSTAL environment variable.

Greetings,

I build svn head version of CS with VS2008 in WinXP, neally all demos (except appceguitest ) turned out to be only a black window.
Seems that only 2D drawing is working, as appceguitest and partical system in some scene are shown. The buffer is not cleared and the screen are massed up with lots of particle and windows.

My graphic card: Quadro 135M

Do you have recent OpenGL drivers from www.nvidia.com?

Greetings,

You are probably including a windows.h or windows specific file. Don't
do that. This file makes defines that conflict with the CS stuff.

Greetings,

can any of you who have got Crystal Space working on there computers tell me the steps you tuck to do it please

The steps are described in the manual. Did you check that? If you have specific problems with understanding parts of that manual you can always ask here but normally it is all there.

Greetings,

You cannot easily do what you want using the DensityTextureMapper. You'll have to use a TableTextureMapper instead. That way you have full control over the texel coordinates at the four corners of your quad.

Greetings,

Hi all!

I'm using cel 1.9 and I can't find a method to obtain the name of the entity trough the entity behaviour.
Where is the GetEntity function of iCelBehaviour? Can I do it by other way?

Thanks.

There is no GetEntity() since it is normally not needed. Can you tell me exactly what kind of behaviours you are using?

Greetings,

reflections?

specifically, i'd like my avatar to be able to see itself, in a mirror. are reflections implemented in this engine?

Yes, the easiest way is to use a mirror portal. This is a portal that points back to the same sector and mirrors space. There are examples of that effect in the flarge level (walktest flarge).

Greetings,

Hello, I'm new to CS, but am excited to get to working on a project that's been a brainchild of mine for some time now. I believe Crystal Space is exactly what I've been looking for to finally put my idea's to purpose.
I'm having some initially issues, however. I downloaded the CELStart, thinking that's what I needed to run the demo games from the Crystal Space site. However, all I'm seeing is Executable files instead of Shell Script files for running the platform. Thus, I'm having issues running the Executable files to get CELStart running. An overall tutorial might be in order. If CELStart IS what I needed to run the demo's and begin working on my own project, then please help me get it running... Executables aren't typically what Linux uses to start a program...

Many Thanks
Mystik.

I guess the easiest thing for you to do would be to download the source code of CS+CEL and then compile it yourselves.
