Irrlicht Engine

I have tried the demo and really like the feel of scale that is achieved. However, I somewhat doubt the applicability of such a feature. I mean having "realistically" sized planets is good and well, but if You land on a planet You want to see more than a brown plane as far as the eye can s...

Thx for the answer. But As I said, setting the 4th component in a position Vector creates really strange effects, i.e. it must have some meaning in a position vector as well.

I am currently writing a shader, using Nvidia FxComposer(Great tool btw) and setting the 4th component of my global variables to zero produces some s...
