Irrlicht Engine

I've add no lights to my scene, yet any animated mesh scene nodes are full bright, as if the EMF_LIGHTING flag was off (it isn't), and their shadows don't draw. I'd like to have nicely lit characters, not ones that glow in the dark.

I'm using a lightmapped DMF level, if that makes any difference.

Have you set driver->setAmbientLight ?

No.

what driver, what other materials are you using, are you using irrlicht svn or 1.1, how did you create your mesh, do your meshes look okay without the DMF, if not, can we have a link to it?
I guess you're feeling frustrated, but "what the heck" doesnt describe your problem at all

Have I missed something? If you have no light entities, how can your animated meshes be lit?

Try setting EmissiveColor to 0, some of the mesh loaders set it higher.

And maybe set driver->setAmbientLight to 0 too

Yeah, I ttried adding setAmbientLight(SColor(0,0,0,0)); and that fixed it. For some reason, It was all 255 by default.
