To be a bit more precise one way to go:

Code: Select all

IImage* img = driver->createImage(ECF_A8R8G8B8, dimension2du(width, height);
memcpy(img->lock(), data, sizeofdata);
img->unlock();
driver->writeImageToFile(img, "dummy.png");

Well you can "blind" the gcc as well. Just cast in a long and then in GLuint afaik. But this only hacks the error away and does not handle the loose of precision.

Did you drop all meshes, gui-element etc either? Another way is to take a look in the sourceforge.net patchsection for irrlicht. There must be one patch around which makes the ITextures ref-counted and provides a "release-unused-texture" method if I remember correctly. But its mostlikely o...

Well there is an other "easy" way to go (short version): seperate the hardwarebuffer and the softwarebuffer, shrink ITexture to a pure hardwarelink like the IMeshbuffer Stuff. If one wants to reload a Texture/reset the Device/change the driver, just drop the links. They will be recreated a...

Well okay. It is just strange that such a behaviour is fixed in a dll/so but of course this is just my "feeling" and your reason is even weighty.

Hi, are you going to add x64 support as well? At least adding the source instate of the libs would be nice :) . Furthermore is there a specific reason why you use a define for activating/deactivating threading? I just wondered about that. But anyway this library is very useful and has a nice interfa...

Uhhh....are you used to containerclasses? If not I would recommend you to read some stuff about them.

The "umlaut problem" is that you use a acsii encoding afaik. If you want more letters with a xml you can i.e. use UTF-8 encoding.

Based on your example I generated a little testcode and up it in the first post. I hope it works for the actual irrlichtversion because I use an old tweaked version. Hf :)
