my problem is when i come to run it

I get this err:-

The Procedure entry point
?createDevice@irr@@YAPAVIrrlichtDevice@1@W4EDriverType@video@1@ABV?$dimension2d@H@vore@1@I_N2PAVIEventReceiver@1@PBG@Z
could not be located in the dynamic link library Irrlicht.dll

I thought it was down to not seeing the DLL file but i coppied the DLL into the main Application folder and the message still comes up

Please help

Thanks...

It sounds like you choose the wrong dll...
There are 2 dlls in the package for DevC++ and MSVC++...
Or maybe an older version of the dll ???

Is the Irrlicht.dll located in the debug folder of the example? that has to be in any case...

Try compiling the example that already comes in the download, under the \examples folder. If it works, then your code is wrong, which is likley since the one off the web has errors.

Otherwise, you have to get the right DLL from \bin - if you're using Dev-Cpp you need the one from the Dev-Cpp folder.

Then just put it in the same folder as your project.
