Irrlicht Engine

Ok, here is an example of what I tried.

First, we have to consider that our NPCs is over or on the floor.
Each time I change his position:

I send 3 rays :
- The first start on the position of my node + a half of his height and stop 500 on the top of his position (y + height/2 to y + 500)
If There ...

Ok, atm I only aim to :

Client:
-Load a terrain
-Load a character
-Control this character (I'll probably use bullet)
-Network module (Send current character position/orientation to the server and get current NPCs position/orienation in order to display them)

Server:
-"Know the terrain" (to be able ...

Ok, thank you for your reply rogerborg, I'll try to do something with all these elements. I don't really want to create a real game and publish it, I just want to start with 3D :)
Therein lies your problem. An MMO isn't a very good medium to learn 3D game programming as shogun said, because they ...

Ok, I still have a question. I started the server part but I included it on client side to show the 3D render. I'm not using irrlicht in this part of code.
Each NPC have a (x y z) position. How can I load a map (without irrlicht!)?
Do I have to store all triangles for each mesh (map, NPC...) and ...

Ok thank you a lot, now I have to work on it.

Screenshots are coming... not soon

@dlangdev : Thanks a lot for your help, at the moment, It's only a small project to test irrlicht and check if it could be used for a medium project, I'm not yet recruiting devs :) Anyway, if you are interested in server side application and network transfer, I have already wrote a network framework ...

My project is a small mmorpg, wow like project.

No, it isn't. World of Warcraft was created consuming more man years you can probably imagine - like most other MMORPGs, BTW. Even the "small" ones. I'm sure you're underestimating the amount of work here.

Really, try something smaller at first ...

Start with 3d- pong, astroid, space invaders, pacman, etc.

I have already created a terrain.x using blender and Im able to move a basic player on the world but it's not very sophisticated and I try to improve it here.

Another one.. omg..

Well, You can find all the answers you seek by searching ...

Ok, I started a game project and I chose Irrlicht for 3D.

I have some questions because its the first time I'm using such a tool.

My project is a small mmorpg, wow like project.

1. How should I manage collision between players or NPC and world? Do I need a physic engine? The collision must be ...

When I try to compile your example with last irrlicht and bullet, I got errors:

CBulletObjectAnimator.h:69: error: `struct irr::scene::CBulletObjectAnimatorGeometry::<anonymous union>::CSphereGeom' invalid; an anonymous union can only have non-static data members
