Irrlicht Engine

you know in theory what you guys say does make sense to me. so the bottom line I believe is: It provides more flexibility and gives me more control.

but you know I'd implement mine with functions like:
is_key_down()
is_key_released()
mouse_button_1_clicked()
mouse_button_2_clicked()
middle_mouse ...

Hi all,
I was wondering why isn't the eventReceiver a part of the engine? you know where the engine user would just call the functions like receiver.keydown(KEY_UP) or whatever.

That would make the engine much easier to use.

Hey guys, since the tutorials only talked about the md2/md3 file formates and no tutorials spoke about how skinned models are loaded so I thought I'd share this tutorial so that others would have their lives eased.

Hey CuteAlien thanks for the quick reply.
You see I was trying so damn hard to import b3d into irrlicht but it doesn't seem to get the materials/textures right for some reason. After so many hours of trial and error I managed to get collada and 3ds to work. I'm not really sure what the problem is ...

How do I load a mesh with armature and several animations from blender? Which format would be best in terms of performance and compatibility with irrlicht?

And how do I load a specific animation?

The tutorials show how to load from md2. But I won't use md2.

Also are their any common bad practices ...

Hey thanks. I managed to load the materials with a cube not sure what was wrong but I did it.
Now I'm struggling to get a mesh with armature to load animation. But I think that's an issue for a different post.
Thanks again.

the title says it all

int main()
{
IrrlichtDevice *device =
createDevice( video::EDT_SOFTWARE, dimension2d<u32>(640, 480), 16,
false, false, false, 0);

if (!device)
return 1;
device->setWindowCaption(L"Hello World! - Irrlicht Engine Demo");

IVideoDriver* driver = device->getVideoDriver ...

thanks you all

Hi all,
I need the standard pipeline that works best for the engine. Or kind of the best practices to get the best results.

which format would be best to export a scene from blender?
which format would be best to export a movable object?
Which format would be best for skeleton animated objects ...
