Irrlicht Engine

Thank you for the reply (:

But will this option Be as good for the purpose of making a Minecraft-like game ?

The only answer i found is

How to render cubes like in this game http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=40468&hilit=minetest.

What's the fastest way ?
I tried something like this
vdr->drawVertexPrimitiveList(verts,3,indices,3,video::E_VERTEX_TYPE::EVT_STANDARD,
scene::EPT_TRIANGLES);
but i don't know ...

Didn't your compiler give an error because you assign values to a "const" at run-time ?

Well, it does not work automatically, but adding just two calls (one getHeight on the proper position and then the setPosition on the node with the new height) seems to be pretty easy. Why don't you use that?
Because when I think of something,I always know there has to be a better way.

Too bad ...

Like just specify x/z and it locates the y of the hill and places the model (tree for example) on top of it.
Something similar to
Attaching a weapon to the camera.
I don't locate the camera position and then set the weapon pos to camera.pos+weapon.pos,but specify the weapon position from the ...

This I know very well.
My question was,IS there another way like the one I mentioned earlier ?

Ok so suppose I have a terrain from a heightmap and it has a hill.
How can i place a AnimatedMesh,without setting the y pos.

Great Answer.
