Irrlicht 1.3.1

Irrlicht 1.4b

DX works fine.

Cheers, I'm really happy about Irrlicht's progress!.

Hmm, didn't see such a problem, yet. But also your results for 1.3.1 are not correct - you should have a transparent world in the center. Ir's far too dark here. It looks like a render state problem, maybe with texture matrix or mipmapping. Do you have an OpenGL debugger? At least compile the app in debug mode and check if there are eny GL erors reported to the console.

Ok will do

. It works fine everywhere else except this laptop

. DX works perfect

.
When i recompile do i have to recompile Irrlicht or just the example?

Everything, well the dll would be enough

This may not apply to this situation, but here goes. You have a RADEON 9100, which is close to the 9200 I have in my desktop. In OGL, on this card, it can't handle the bumpmapped or parallaxmapped materials that Irrlicht uses, but with DX9, the same can CAN handle the above-mentioned materials. On my computer with said card, with OGL, Irrlicht uses a fallback material, where it works perfect with DX9. Something in Irrlicht 1.4 may have changed to where the fallback doesn't work right. Also, I saw another post where it was mentioned that Irrlicht needs to use "legacy" shader compilers or something like that, which was in another topic very recent in Bug Reports. Maybe this and that have something to do with it.

That sounds about right
