Game console

Post by Icare »

In some games, you can open the game console by using a special key (the key next the key 1, main times).

Does the developers just print the std::cout on this 'console', or they create their own string buffer ?

If they use the std::cout, how to redirect or print it in a staticText of the Irrlicht GUIEnv ?

Thanks a lot...

P.S.: I have already found that http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/phpBB2/ ... ht=console but its not answer my question...

I would just use something like static text or a list box from the GUI and have it appear when you press a button.
