I'm considering starting the sequel to this tutorial soon.
Has anyone actually followed through this entire tutorial?
Anyone who has used (or tried) this tutorial have any feedback?

I found your article very helpful to me, thanks for this one

Btw I need some help, can you take a look at http://www.ogre3d.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=13837 plz?

Thanks

I am having a bear of a time

Slowly, I have had to learn many lessons along the way (mostly, because I was attempting to use newer versions of some components mentioned), but feel I am getting close to working.

May I fix a few things I found wrong, however?

For instance, under Lua 5.0.2, this blurb

 lua_baselibopen(mLuaState);
 lua_iolibopen(mLuaState);
 lua_strlibopen(mLuaState);
 lua_mathlibopen(mLuaState);

I feel should actually read as

 luaopen_base(mLuaState);
 luaopen_io(mLuaState);
 luaopen_string(mLuaState);
 luaopen_math(mLuaState);

Let me know.

--Jacmoe 17:44, 16 May 2006 (CDT) - If you are upgrading to Lua 5.0.2, and those are required changes, please update the text.
But keep the exsisting code, because all users might not want the upgrade.

--User:Tone
But the page says it is geared toward 5.0.2 ... is there some other version for which the code above works without change?

Also, if you can indulge me... can you offer me some insight into why people who are just now starting work with Lua+Ogre3D would not want to upgrade to the latest possible versions? 5.0.2 is not even the latest; there has since been 5.0.2 RC2 and 5.1. I'd just like to know what I'm doing and if I am on the wrong course. It took a considerable time to realize that 5.1 does not work, and the issues are non-trivial to a newcomer. Can someone offer positive statements of what does work and what is known NOT to work?

thanks all.
