Irrlicht Engine

I don't see a patch file attached to https://sourceforge.net/p/irrlicht/patches/232/ . Do you still have it, aehparta? This would be a great feature. On Linux you can press a button to make the Irrlicht window fullscreen borderless, on both X11 and Wayland. This is what I do with Minetest and my WIP ...

The thing I don't like is that Qt uses utf-16 (widechar) strings. I know irrlicht also does for its GUI. It would be nice if you could use Irrlicht with the utf-8 strings GTK uses for its GUI, so pretty much everything would be char (utf-8). See: https://utf8everywhere.org/ I understand Irrlicht and ...

Actually, to be honest, I used the latest version of Irrlicht from the repo, which is why there is an IImage::getData() method. But thanks for posting the diffs - They should help anyone still using the stable release of Irrlicht.

Ah, I see now, sorry for the confusion.

Of course :) I was also able to port it to gtkmm-4.0, and I made a few modifications. I figured out how to update the Irrlicht widget every frame using a tick callback, and I added a few more buttons. Here is the source:

Update, I got it to work with irrlicht 1.8.5 and gtkmm-3.0, by replacing the nonexistent getData() function with the lock() function, in irr::video::IImage.

my_pixbuf = my_pixbuf->create_from_data(
(const guint8*) my_videoBuffer->lock(), Gdk::COLORSPACE_RGB, true, 8,

This code seems like it would work to me :) but I haven't gotten it to compile the main.cpp file. I'm trying to run Irrlicht and use gtk for the gui. I tried compiling this with irrlicht 1.8 and gtkmm-3.0. After removing the IRR_OVERRIDE undefined macros, with the main.cpp file left to compile, my ...
