1. How can I make huge blocks of interconnecting terrain?
2. How can I make bigger fonts?

I found this yesterday by googling "Irrlicht Fonts"

http://www.gljakal.com/irrfontmaker/index.php

works a treat.

Try searching the forum for terrain, theres a lot of terrain projects.

@ Baz : Lol, I had Irrlicht installed on my laptop, and was on my desktop when looking for it. I tend to work from different computers a lot, so when I setup and Irrlicht project, I make all the includes, libs, etc part of the project. That way I don't have to install Irrlicht where ever I want to work, although I do miss gems like that one.

We all know google is our friend though

I meant, like, resizing fonts.

You can't. For reasons of speed and simplicity, Irrlicht uses bitmap fonts rather than vector fonts. If you want a larger font, then you have to use the font tool (included in the SDK) to create a bitmap for the bigger font, the load it with IGUIEnvironment::getFont(), as shown in example 05.UserInterface.
