Running Irrlicht on Windows x64?

[so1odo1o]

Hi. I accidentally downloaded the 32-bit version of Visual C++ for my 64-bit computer. It still works and I plan on sticking with it since Irrlicht has provided a x32 lib file.

So far I have created my project. Set the VC++ directories for the include files and the library files (pointing to the x32 Visual Studio folders), as stated in the first tutorial.

The problem that I am getting is "The program can't start because Irrlicht.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."

Is there an important step I am missing. If I am using the 32-bit Visual C++ with the 32-bit Irrlicht files on my 64-bit computer, should it work fine? Please help. Thank you.

I found the x32 visual studo Irrlicht.dll file and put it in my Release folder. I've also changed the path of the meshes to the proper directory.

Now, however, I am getting this error:
1>Embedding manifest...
1>Project : error PRJ0002 : Error result 31 returned from 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\bin\mt.exe'.
1>Build log was saved at "file://c:\Users\Brent\Desktop\IrrlichtTuts\IrrlichtTuts\Release\BuildLog.htm"
1>IrrlichtTuts - 1 error(s), 10 warning(s)

Please help me, this is urgent.

32bit applications can run normally on your 64bit OS.

The only thing you can't do is to use 32bit irrlicht.dll with your 64bit compiled program/game.

You would have to recompile irrlicht.dll to 64bits in that case. I already tested it and it seems to work fine in x64 mode.
