Ogre plugins, building SR
Posted: 12 May 2014, 18:27Hi,
I've been trying to compile VDrift and its dependencies, but I need some clarification on the plug-ins. How exactly do I install OGRE Plug-ins/Add-ons? I know this sounds like a question I should ask at the OGRE forum (searching got me nowhere there), but I'm particularly confused about the specific add-ons listed for VDrift: http://code.google.com/p/vdrift-ogre/wiki/Compiling
*Ogre 1.9 Plugins - https://svn.code.sf.net/p/ogreaddons/code/trunk/
- OgrePaging = paginglandscape? simplepagedterrain?
- OgreTerrain = clipmapterrain? cubicfractalterrain? displacementmapterrain? simplepagedterrain?
- Plugin_ParticleFX = already at ogre-1.9/Plugins/ParticleFX? particleeditor?
First of all, I couldn't find the specific plugin/add-on names listed for VDrift except for in OGRE source/Plugins directory, as ParticleFX. I guess it's all that is needed for that plugin/add-on, although there is a particleeditor plugin/add-on. As for the other plugins/add-ons, which are the right ones?
Second of all, how are the plugins/add-ons installed? Do I add them to the OGRE source/Plugins directory where ParticleFX already is, and then compile OGRE, and do I need options to have them enabled (--with-ParticleFX?)? Or do I compile them separately and configure OGRE to find them somehow (compile add-ons/plugins before or after compiling OGRE?)? Are the add-ons/plugins considered libraries, so do they have to go in usr/lib64? Again, I've searched OGRE forums with no good results (maybe just a bad search engine).
I'd appreciate any clarification and help.
