problem with collisions

Hi! I have a problem with collisions. In the official collision tutorial there is a meta triangle selector for collisions. How should I modify it to add collisions with *.X models? My problem is, that I use v.1.4 and I don't have a scene::ENST_ANY flag to find all types of nodes in the scene.

because its always problematic to change the current code to workwith the new irrlicht.
i had big problem when changing from 1.4 to 1.5.
1.6 was ok

True... trying to change 1.4 to 1.5 was a nightmare. That's why i stayed on 1.4...

My definition of 'nightmare' is very different. There were only a few methods which changed its signatures.

And 1.6 is definitely worth using it over 1.4.

noh, changing the code that dont give error wasnt hard, but even the lighting was different -w-

There is no topic, 1.4 is out of support since the 1.6 release. The easiest solution is to switch to 1.6, otherwise try to copy the function code for the scene graph traversal from 1.6 code to your app.
Also, all changes are described in detail in the upgrade-guide. Also the lighting issues and how to work around.

we didnt say it was impossible, or not documented. just that it was hard
