Using a function...

Ok, I stop giving you "do this - do that" instructions. It is obvious, that you don't yet understand the problem here.
So my advice is: Learn C++. C++ is a damn complex language. The most complex imperative language I know actually. If you are not aware of the scopes-concept, you are lacking knowledge, that is essential when using a complex library like Irrlicht.

Learn about scopes (and actually understand it!) and about OO design principles too.

Yes, I understand the problem. The problem simply was, that my "dummy-declaration" for the camera-pointer was a global declaration, while the other "real" declaration was a "local" declaration. Local variables and pointers are fully independent of global ones. And the RTS_camera simply tried to use the "dummy-declaration" because it was the only accesible declaration. Because it cant access a local variable or pointer of the main-part. And thze dummy-declaration was 0, so wanting to get the position of this creates an acces violation.

BTW: Deine Name stammt aus Gothic 1 , oder?
