ok i understand i can combine the engine into application
but what about the final result of the image does Irrlicht give
good quality rendering result?

you should look at the Screenshots of the month and see yourself
Basically the quality of renders depends on your hardware and your coding skills

Another use of Irrlicht, little-bit alien compare to the average user, but I'm using it to visualize GIS information. Also QT.
