Hey guys,

Any of you started tackling signed distance field rendering using irrlicht?

I am building scalable UI so this would be the next logical step

I just use ttf fonts, no hassle.

Was not aware of TTF support in Irrlicht.

How about text effects? Outline, drop shadow, etc...?

It's not in irr main. Any effects aren't usually included.
