[Blender] Model appearing upside down in Irrlicht

Hey all,

I was playing around with importing this model into Irrlicht, however when I do, it's upside down. My other models I've made/rigged are fine. Been crawling through all of the parameters, applied all locations/rotations/scales, etc., but still no progress after about 2 hours of experimentation / googling.

Would appreciate it if someone could take a look!

Thanks,

Spent the past 2 days looking into this more, and still no progress.

Hoping someone much more knowledgeable than I can help out!

Will post here if I make any breakthroughs, but not holding my breath at this point.

I would just save it as upside down in Blender rather than trying to flip in in irrlicht. Then again, I know very little about Blender's file format, so maybe that has something to do with it.
If you try to flip it in irrlicht, you could change the vertices by flipping all the z-axis values in a for-loop. Sorry I can't offer more help.

Just scale in the Y-direction - node->setScale(1, -1, 1).

The model doesn't have any animation in Blender, does it?

I did that (making it upside down in Blender)- but it was then at a weird angle in Irrlicht. No idea why.

Ended up just re-rigging it, which fixed the problem.

Thanks for the input guys!
