1. How can I make huge blocks of interconnecting terrain?
2. How can I make bigger fonts?

I found this yesterday by googling "Irrlicht Fonts"
http://www.gljakal.com/irrfontmaker/index.php
works a treat.
Try searching the forum for terrain, theres a lot of terrain projects.

@ Baz : Lol, I had Irrlicht installed on my laptop, and was on my desktop when looking for it. I tend to work from different computers a lot, so when I setup and Irrlicht project, I make all the includes, libs, etc part of the project. That way I don't have to install Irrlicht where ever I want to work, although I do miss gems like that one.
We all know google is our friend though

You can't. For reasons of speed and simplicity, Irrlicht uses bitmap fonts rather than vector fonts. If you want a larger font, then you have to use the font tool (included in the SDK) to create a bitmap for the bigger font, the load it with IGUIEnvironment::getFont(), as shown in example 05.UserInterface.
