NxTriangleMesh from Irrlicht Mesh

Hi,
I'm coding my game (simple 3d FPS) and I want to use Physx (with irrPhysx wrapper) in it, but I've got a problem with creating NxTriangleMesh (for CCD purposes). Does anyone know how to create NxTriangleMesh from Irrlich Mesh object ? or how to get number of triangles from Irrlicht Mesh ?
Cheers,

The irrlicht mesh will have a function to get the index count, divide that by 3 and you shall know the triangle count!

In IrrPhysx there's support for triangle meshes, does that not cover your needs?

Thanks for fast reply

You're right there is, I didn't saw it earlier. Thanks a lot

Well if you look at the IrrPhysx source you will see how I create the Physx triangle mesh from the Irrlicht mesh data so that should give you some pointers for how to get the CCD skeleton setup?

Yes, sorry for bother you

Not a problem, feel free to come back with any issues

Though note that I don't know anything about the CCD stuff, hence why it's not in IrrPhysx yet
