Hide Irrlicht console window?

[Pantheon]

Hi there,

I've just started learning the Irrlicht Engine and have come across a question.

Is it possible to hide the Irrlicht status console window when creating a console application? Or must I create a winforms solution and render the engine in a picturebox or similar?

Looking forward to an answer.

What IDE are you using? Code::Blocks, DevCPP, etc...

I'm using VC# Express.

Yes.

It should be hidden unless you specifically call it out. What code are you using in your main (the static method that starts the app)?

[Pantheon]

This is my main right now:

Code: Select all

static void Main(string[] args)
{
     IrrlichtDevice device = new IrrlichtDevice(DriverType.DIRECT3D9);
     device.WindowCaption = "Loading...";
     device.ResizeAble = true;

     ICameraSceneNode camera = device.SceneManager.AddCameraSceneNodeFPS();
     camera.Position = new Vector3D(-50, 50, -150);

     while (device.Run())
     {

         if (device.WindowActive)
         {
             device.VideoDriver.BeginScene(true, true, new Color(0, 0, 0, 0));
             device.SceneManager.DrawAll();
             device.VideoDriver.EndScene();

         }

     }

}

I'd like this to be rendered without the Irrlicht Engine Version window.

(Sorry if my question is simple, but I just couldn't find what I was looking for in the documentation.)

I'm quite sure this has been answered quite a lot of time on this forum so you might want to do a quick search.
Might be wrong tho, since I'm not sure if it's the same on all IDEs.

Saku, you're right.

Pantheon, I think you were looking for this:
