[SOLVED] Drawing text in different sizes

[Some Moron]

I'm aware that Irr native bitmap fonts cannot be scaled, but is there a good way around this? The only obvious solutions to me are using different sized fonts (which wastes texture memory and makes certain animation effects all but impossible) and drawing each different size of text to a render target and then drawing it on a quad. (Which is probably inefficient, certainly not intuitive, and seems like it would need one render target for every different font size...?)

Are there any e.g. external libraries up to this task?

Yeah, there are a few solutions. One is the one from Nalin here: http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/forum/v ... hp?t=37296
Also in my sig you can find a link to some of my Irrlicht-snippets and there is another ttf solution which was based on the thread here: http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/forum/v ... f=5&t=3995

Thank you for the suggestions! I'd been looking at the first one and wasn't sure if it actually supported custom sizes or not, but evidently it does... the other options also look attractive.
