Sorry, but i have some questions...
Can i change the driver type while the program (and device) is running?
And, can i load irrlicht without the window? i want to create a load-screen with winapi, but when i set createDevice, it creates the window directly...

In the SDK you downloaded there's an example folder with examples of how to use Irrlicht. One of them shows you how you can create an Irrlicht device in a winapi window.

you can however terminate the device and start a new one with a different driver...
All you have to do is save everything the way it was before quitting the device.... which sounds like hell of a job

but, i dont want to quit, because if i initialize with null driver, i will have to quit the device, driver, etc and start again (loading all stuff again)...

what is the point? you can drop the device, and not end your program.

Essentially you don't want to load anything for that specific reason. So either you make the loading screen with Irrlicht, or modify Irrlicht to further support what you're trying to do.

you're probably using NPOT textures...
