i guess that should clear itWhat is Irrlicht?
1. Irrlicht is an graphics engine, not game engine (so no sound nor networking, only some basic collision is built in)
2. It is a library for the programming language C++. So you'll need to learn to use that language in order to program correctly with Irrlicht (if you're new to C++ I advise you to read some tutorials or books ( this one is pretty good imo, covers almost everything).
● How to use Irrlicht?
1. Get an IDE (Integrated Development Environment) like
Microsoft Visual C++ (costs a few hundred $ to a few thousand $)
Relo (free)
Dev C++ (free)
2, Setup Irrlicht for IDE:
Microsoft Visual C++:

Relo:
http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/phpBB2/ ... php?t=4132 (brilliant video-tutorials by afecelis explaining every step)
DevC++:
http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/tut001b.html
3. Now that you compiled the Helllo World app, take a look at the Irrlicht tutorials:

4. If you encounter any problems, visit the forums .
