Irrlicht Engine

Looking at the first post of this thread, the font graphic created by the old font tool is messed up because he has windows anti-aliasing enabled (cleartype). You need to goto desktop appearance->effects and uncheck it. Then create the font again. The old font tool has dots and other info encoded in...

He told you what to do. Load the xml font file in your code and make sure you do not check the vector option when making the font files. Additionally, It seems that the fonts are still messed up if you create a font when clear type is enabled in windows. The font will appear sort of bold and general...

The math results aren't used for the position of anything and is completely unrelated to video. Below I have a simple example where i add a small amount to a larger number (the result is...

I am also having the exact same problem, where I need to be able to tell if a user is interacting with my gui elements or is clicking on an area of the screen not covered by a gui element. This a problem since clicking a gui element will generate a mouse event as well as a gui event. The current cod...
