Irrlicht Engine

Here is a .gif of my issue

as you can see, when parts of my image reach the frame of my screen, they stop being rendered


I have created a .irr file in copper-cube (the textured building)

my issue is, when parts of the .irr mesh leave the window it wont render, i'd like any parts of the mesh that are on the screen to be rendered.

Any help is greatly appreciated
I'm pretty new to irrlicht.
My code is below
Thanks

wait. do you mean that when you're inside the room, everything draws correctly? and this happens when you leave the room?
if that's it, it's just a normal problem. you'll need double sided faces. it actually is rendered, but the texture don't shows.

search a double sided face option in the program you used to make the model. if i understand what the issue is, it is not an irrlicht problem, just a small thing that you need to configure in the 3d file.

The screen-shot I sent, i'm currently inside the room.
when parts of the mesh (its a very simple triangulated mesh) touch the edge of the screen, that part of the mesh stops being rendered

I'll send more screenshots, so it's more clear what I mean

Here is a 3 framed .gif showing what happens when the camera moves side to side

as you can see, as new bits of mesh reach the screen frame it stops being rendered and disappears

I have solved the issue. was very simple. I had the wrong coding for my irrlicht device



// my original code
IrrlichtDevice *device = createDevice( video::EDT_SOFTWARE,
dimension2d<u32>(640, 480), 16,false, false, false, 0);


//code I needed
IrrlichtDevice* device = createDevice(EDT_OPENGL,
dimension2d<u32>(640, 480), 16, false, false, false, 0);
