Irrlicht Engine

i think that should be on the RC since it doesnt sound necessary to keep a cimage doubling the consumed memory (btw, it worked, thank you)

thats what i thought, who should i ask about this in the irrlicht team?
cause it seems it is really duplicating memory now...

OK, thats not the case, i made the test using a .bmp file(btw, same specifications, 4mb , 1024x1024) and it still eating up the same ammount of memory (8.2 mb)

any other ideas??? anyone?

guys, i am loading a 4mb , 1024x1024 , uncompressed TGA texture and when i use the IrrVideoDriver.GetTexture to load it up, it consumes 8.2MB of system memory! I REALLY cant see a reason for that, why would it consumes double the memory of the normal texture? i already set the CreateMipMaps to false...

guys, have you tried to pass a string from the c++ code to .NET in Vista? Because when i do that in XP it works FLAWLESS, however, in vista it keeps giving me access violation when i try to get the name of a texture :( maybe a problem witn .Net 3.0 of vista against the 2.0 of xp?? and what is worse,...
