Its either this or the flash based GUI that someone else is working on. They both look promising. Great job!

Well, i thought i might elaborate.

The system iv created for this type of GUI is infact a sprite class. it is an animated sprite manager, which (obv) can do non animated sprites as well. There is not much 2d stuff outside of the basics inside irrlicht and i was planning on making a 2d GUI based game. the final release thing of this will incorporate a few things,

animated sprites

animated entities (menus, etc) with mouseover and click events to check for

animated scenes (like flashbacks is what i used it for)

animated sequences. for example, i recorded a short clip of a man speaking, dubbed over my own sound and preloaded the images for the video. Then when u get to a certain point it did the whole "command and conquer" in hud video thing. obviously its not the best choice for video but i was going for using images only at this point.

The simplicity is really evident and i will be releasinf a new demo for this soon.

Well, for my little game I need to make a decent inventory and gui. So although flash integration would make it a lot easier to do, your modifications will nonetheless be useful in making it look prettier
