Irrlicht Engine

Hello... Im just having another try to build something useful using Irrlicht... But I cant get a device created. The tutorials all use the short parameter list for createDevice, but I would like to use the longer one. What am I doing wrong here, I couldnt find something on the forums.... This code.....

Why have I tried it so complicated?! Just got the Irrlicht DevPak (although ver 1.0) and it simply works...

I already read that thread, but it didn't seem to be the same problem as here... I'll try

Okay, here's the next try. Set devcpp up like described in the tutorial, but compiling it... The linker gives this error message: [Linker error] undefined reference to `_imp___ZN3irr12createDeviceENS_5video13E_DRIVER_TYPEERKNS_4core11dimension2dIiEEjbbbPNS_14IEventReceiverEPKc' This is my source: #i...

Argh, now that you said it... What a glorious idea, let's include binary data in a source file...

Hi, I'm just trying to compile Irrlicht against the gcc-Irrlicht.dll, but gcc produces loads of errors like this: Irrlicht.dll:7: stray ´\377´ in program Irrlicht.dll:7: stray ´\320´ in program Irrlicht.dll:7: stray ´\215´ in program There are tons of such lines for each line in the DLL and there ar...
