you rarely are going to get a non biased answer asking in any of its forums. maybe in a neutral one yes...
I like the fact that both import weighted x files.
Tv3d allows vb coding, which I know a bit.
irrlicht is free, tv3d is free for non comercial only.. u gotta purchase a copy for that.
can't say more, as don't know more.

I think if u really want to get deep into coding and want a Engine which you can also expand then u should take Irrlicht.
And i think that if you want to make a commercial projekt Irrlicht is better because it's free.
Just a hint compare the features of the two and watch out for the things YOU need

I am a beginner too,and I think that the lrrlicht is very easy to start with,and we have many good teachers here,like LordNaikon and r2d2

I worked with Truevision3D, and it is much slower than Irrlicht, IMHO. But Irrlicht is a GRAPHICS engine, meanwhile Truevision is a GAME engine...

Truevision is some hing great..but not free for comercial use
Have you ever tried Jet3D,genesis,ogre,fous,ooengine,...
I think Irrlicht is great... I was in a project with jet and stopped it.
I am very much impressed in Irrlicht..
FPS is like a porn movie! Who cares the story?
LIGHT is my strength!
