Hi all.
I have been working on a project but finaly got to the part to make the keyboard functions and than i went to try the default irrlicht event reciever but got stuck with it and its functions so i am looking for another 3th party plugin for irrlicht that helps me with that wich is compatible with irrlicht version 1.4 and has a example(a simple one) and readme.
Thanks in advance.

There is no really fancy stuff happening in the event receiver. So any available receiver will more or less provide the same things, maybe slightly improved compared to the examples. The only one I can recall at th moment is the MastEventReceiver, which you can also find in the Irrlicht Wiki. And be sure to read about the bool keys array, also on the Wiki. But you will have to face some amount of work to implement an EventReceiver which fits your project.

Also, while the Irrlicht event receiver does what it does just fine, there's nothing forcing you to use it. You could use SDL, or a dedicated standalone input system like OOIS - note that you'll need to use 3rd party solution if you want joystick support.
