Irrlicht Engine

smgr->addAnimatedMeshSceneNode( mesh );

Assuming the sphere mesh you're using is the Irrlicht provided sphere mesh, you are creating a sphere model that it is going to be located at the world coordinate system origin.


smgr->addLightSceneNode( 0, core::vector3df(0,1500,0), video::SColorf(1.0f ...

thanks, but if I was able to do the renders correctly in 3dsmax I guess the normals are right.
Ok, just tell me (please) if this is right or wrong:
(the sphere model is a 3ds generated with 3dsmax (standar sphere).

createDevice( video::EDT_DIRECT3D9, dimension2d<s32>(800, 600), 16,
false, false ...

one omnidirectional light and sufficient ambient level should be enough!
(but how to do it in Irrlicht dont ask me )

why the lights topic are so elusive in Irrlicht tutorials? (not to mention shadows)

ok, I'll try

there is no texture but I expected a flat shading at least (since I added a light) , and that is not flat shading. (I tried changing EMF_LIGHTING for EMF_LIGHTING_GOURAUD too without getting other than the shown above).
You can see the coords. for the light (I tried other positions too). :(
