I would like to know because version 1.0 of irrlicht for DevPack almost has performance of 50% more in relation to version 1.1 of irrlicht for Vc++2003. the My computer: Athlon 2,4 XP, 726MB DDR333, GFX 5200 128MB 64bits

Irrlicht V.1.0 DevPack for Devc++(Release)

Irrlicht V.1.1 Vc++2003(Release)

Probably the wrong LOD usage in 1.0. The 1.1 version has higher tri count and thus renders slower. You could override the lod level if you want.

Did you recompiled the VC++2003 version or are you using the version from the distribution. I have come across the fact that M$ provides a non-optimising compiler with their free "standard" download. My physics engine runs almost half as slow with the non-optimising free compiler compared to the optimising compiler I use in the office.
