cutealien f53af0f2cf TGA images with palettes in 24 or 32 bit now create 32 bit images
Was creating 16-bit images for those before.
Could also support 24-bit images, but either we need another convert function or another palette for that (the 16 and 32 bit both work with 32 bit palettes, the 24 bit conversion function only with 24 bit palettes)

IrrlichtMt version 1.9

IrrlichtMt is the 3D engine of Minetest. It is based on the Irrlicht Engine but is now developed independently. It is intentionally not compatible to upstream and is planned to be eventually absorbed into Minetest.

Build

The build system is CMake.

The following libraries are required to be installed:

  • zlib, libPNG, libJPEG
  • OpenGL
    • or on mobile: OpenGL ES (can be optionally enabled on desktop too)
  • on Unix: X11

Aside from standard search options (ZLIB_INCLUDE_DIR, ZLIB_LIBRARY, ...) the following options are available:

  • BUILD_SHARED_LIBS (default: ON) - Build IrrlichtMt as a shared library
  • BUILD_EXAMPLES (default: OFF) - Build example applications
  • ENABLE_OPENGL - Enable OpenGL driver
  • ENABLE_OPENGL3 (default: OFF) - Enable OpenGL 3+ driver
  • ENABLE_GLES1 - Enable OpenGL ES driver, legacy
  • ENABLE_GLES2 - Enable OpenGL ES 2+ driver
  • USE_SDL2 (default: OFF) - Use SDL2 instead of native platform device

e.g. on a Linux system you might want to build for local use like this:

git clone https://github.com/minetest/irrlicht
cd irrlicht
cmake . -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF
make -j$(nproc)

This will put an IrrlichtMtTargets.cmake file into the cmake directory in the current build directory, and it can then be imported from another project by pointing find_package() to the build directory, or by setting the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH variable to that same path.

on Windows system:

It is highly recommended to use vcpkg as package manager.

After you successfully built vcpkg you can easily install the required libraries:

vcpkg install zlib libjpeg-turbo libpng opengl-registry --triplet x64-windows

Run the following script in PowerShell:

git clone https://github.com/minetest/irrlicht
cd irrlicht
cmake -B build -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -A "Win64" -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=[vcpkg-root]/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF
cmake --build build --config Release

Platforms

We aim to support these platforms:

  • Windows via MinGW
  • Linux (GL or GLES)
  • macOS
  • Android

This doesn't mean other platforms don't work or won't be supported, if you find something that doesn't work contributions are welcome.

License

The license of the Irrlicht Engine is based on the zlib/libpng license and applies to this fork, too.
