SAnimatedMesh / SMesh - Shadow Volume

Hello,
I have one simple question ... Is there any way to create shadow from SAnimatedMesh or SMesh ? (without "reprogramming" irrlicht source code)

Yes search for shadow and youll find plenty of examples how to do it

I searched the whole forum and there isn`t any thread how to do SMesh (including DOT3 mapping) + Shadow

SMesh doesn't exist in the scene without being part of a node, so what use would a shadow be if you're not going to draw it?
easiest way would be to attach the SMesh to SAnimatedMesh, add as an AnimatedMeshSceneNode, then create a shadow as usual.
