+/** Example 012 Terrain Rendering
+
+This tutorial will briefly show how to use the terrain renderer of Irrlicht. It
+will also show the terrain renderer triangle selector to be able to do
+collision detection with terrain.
+
+Note that the Terrain Renderer in Irrlicht is based on Spintz'
+GeoMipMapSceneNode, lots of thanks go to him. DeusXL provided a new elegant
+simple solution for building larger area on small heightmaps -> terrain
+smoothing.
+
+In the beginning there is nothing special. We include the needed header files
+and create an event listener to listen if the user presses a key: The 'W' key
+switches to wireframe mode, the 'P' key to pointcloud mode, and the 'D' key
+toggles between solid and detail mapped material.

+	texture. The terrain renderer loads it and creates the 3D terrain from
+	it.
+
+	To make the terrain look more big, we change the scale factor of
+	it to (40, 4.4, 40). Because we don't have any dynamic lights in the
+	scene, we switch off the lighting, and we set the file
+	terrain-texture.jpg as texture for the terrain and detailmap3.jpg as
+	second texture, called detail map. At last, we set the scale values for
+	the texture: The first texture will be repeated only one time over the
+	whole terrain, and the second one (detail map) 20 times.

+ <p>This tutorial will briefly show how to use the terrain renderer of Irrlicht. It will also show the terrain renderer triangle selector to be able to do collision detection with terrain.</p>
+<p>Note that the Terrain Renderer in Irrlicht is based on Spintz' GeoMipMapSceneNode, lots of thanks go to him. DeusXL provided a new elegant simple solution for building larger area on small heightmaps -&gt; terrain smoothing.</p>
+<p>In the beginning there is nothing special. We include the needed header files and create an event listener to listen if the user presses a key: The 'W' key switches to wireframe mode, the 'P' key to pointcloud mode, and the 'D' key toggles between solid and detail mapped material. </p><div class="fragment"><div class="line"><span class="preprocessor">#include &lt;irrlicht.h&gt;</span></div><div class="line"><span class="preprocessor">#include &quot;driverChoice.h&quot;</span></div><div class="line"></div><div class="line"><span class="keyword">using namespace </span>irr;</div><div class="line"></div><div class="line"><span class="preprocessor">#ifdef _MSC_VER</span></div><div class="line"><span class="preprocessor">#pragma comment(lib, &quot;Irrlicht.lib&quot;)</span></div><div class="line"><span class="preprocessor">#endif</span></div><div class="line"></div><div class="line"></div><div class="line"><span class="keyword">class </span>MyEventReceiver : <span class="keyword">public</span> IEventReceiver</div><div class="line">{</div><div class="line"><span class="keyword">public</span>:</div><div class="line"></div><div class="line">    MyEventReceiver(scene::ISceneNode* terrain, scene::ISceneNode* skybox, scene::ISceneNode* skydome) :</div><div class="line">        Terrain(terrain), Skybox(skybox), Skydome(skydome), showBox(true), showDebug(false)</div><div class="line">    {</div><div class="line">        Skybox-&gt;setVisible(showBox);</div><div class="line">        Skydome-&gt;setVisible(!showBox);</div><div class="line">    }</div><div class="line"></div><div class="line">    <span class="keywordtype">bool</span> OnEvent(<span class="keyword">const</span> SEvent&amp;

The only parameter we use is a file name to the heightmap we use. A heightmap is simply a gray scale texture. The terrain renderer loads it and creates the 3D terrain from it.</p>
+<p>To make the terrain look more big, we change the scale factor of it to (40, 4.4, 40). Because we don't have any dynamic lights in the scene, we switch off the lighting, and we set the file terrain-texture.jpg as texture for the terrain and detailmap3.jpg as second texture, called detail map. At last, we set the scale values for the texture: The first texture will be repeated only one time over the whole terrain, and the second one (detail map) 20 times. </p><div class="fragment"><div class="line"><span class="comment">// add terrain scene node</span></div><div class="line">scene::ITerrainSceneNode* terrain = smgr-&gt;addTerrainSceneNode(</div><div class="line">    <span class="stringliteral">&quot;../../media/terrain-heightmap.bmp&quot;</span>,</div><div class="line">    0,                  <span class="comment">// parent node</span></div><div class="line">    -1,                 <span class="comment">// node id</span></div><div class="line">    core::vector3df(0.f, 0.f, 0.f),     <span class="comment">// position</span></div><div class="line">    core::vector3df(0.f, 0.f, 0.f),     <span class="comment">// rotation</span></div><div class="line">    core::vector3df(40.f, 4.4f, 40.f),  <span class="comment">// scale</span></div><div class="line">    video::SColor ( 255, 255, 255, 255 ),   <span class="comment">// vertexColor</span></div><div class="line">    5,                  <span class="comment">// maxLOD</span></div><div class="line">    scene::ETPS_17,             <span class="comment">// patchSize</span></div><div class="line">    4                   <span class="comment">// smoothFactor</span></div><div class="line">    );</div><div class="line"></div><div class="line">terrain-&gt;setMaterialFlag(video::EMF_LIGHTING, <span class="keyword">false</span>);</div><div class="line"></div><div class="line">terrain-&gt;setMaterialTexture(0,</div><div class="line">        driver-&gt;getTexture(<span class="stringliteral">&quot;../../media/terrain-texture.jpg&quot;</span>));</div><div class="line">terrain-&gt;setMaterialTexture(1,</div><div class="line">        driver-&gt;getTexture(<span class="stringliteral">&quot;../../media/detailmap3.jpg&quot;</span>));</div><div class="line"></div><div class="line">terrain-&gt;setMaterialType(video::EMT_DETAIL_MAP);</div><div class="line"></div><div class="line">terrain-&gt;scaleTexture(1.0f, 20.0f);</div></div><!-- fragment --><p> To be able to do collision with the terrain, we create a triangle selector. If you want to know what triangle selectors do, just take a look into the collision tutorial. The terrain triangle selector works together with the terrain. To demonstrate this, we create a collision response animator and attach it to the camera, so that the camera will not be able to fly through the terrain. </p><div class="fragment"><div class="line"><span class="comment">// create triangle selector for the terrain </span></div><div class="line">scene::ITriangleSelector* selector</div><div class="line">    = smgr-&gt;createTerrainTriangleSelector(terrain, 0);</div><div class="line">terrain-&gt;setTriangleSelector(selector);</div><div class="line"></div><div class="line"><span class="comment">// create collision response animator and attach it to the camera</span></div><div class="line">scene::ISceneNodeAnimator* anim = smgr-&gt;createCollisionResponseAnimator(</div><div class="line">    selector, camera, core::vector3df(60,100,60),</div><div class="line">    core::vector3df(0,0,0),</div><div class="line">    core::vector3df(0,50,0));</div><div class="line">selector-&gt;drop();</div><div class="line">camera-&gt;addAnimator(anim);</div><div class="line">anim-&gt;drop();</div></div><!-- fragment --><p> If you need access to the terrain data you can also do this directly via the following code fragment. </p><div class="fragment"><div class="line">scene::CDynamicMeshBuffer* buffer = <span class="keyword">new</span> scene::CDynamicMeshBuffer(video::EVT_2TCOORDS, video::EIT_16BIT);</div><div class="line">terrain-&gt;getMeshBufferForLOD(*buffer, 0);</div><div class="line">video::S3DVertex2TCoords* data = (video::S3DVertex2TCoords*)buffer-&gt;getVertexBuffer().getData();</div><div class="line"><span class="comment">// Work on data or get the IndexBuffer with a similar call.</span></div><div class="line">buffer-&gt;drop(); <span class="comment">// When done drop the buffer again.</span></div></div><!-- fragment --><p> To make the user be able to switch between normal and wireframe mode, we create an instance of the event receiver from above and let Irrlicht know about it.
