seems the link from Irrlicht's home is broken... or someone put it away?
I can't see the irrlicht wiki anymore...

Yeah gone since 9 months. And no backups. I think it was around the time SF moved to new servers (the Wiki was hosted there). Sorry, don't know enough about sysoping to have any idea what happened, but didn't see any file or DB about it. Don'teven know how it worked before. Should probably remove link in homepage - back then I had hoped server migration of SF was not finished yet and it would suddenly show up again. But I guess after this time no point in still hoping for that.

The wiki was getting outdated anyways... and full of a bunch of half-finished stuff. One of the only useful things I ever found on it was a list of dependencies you needed for Irrlicht on Linux. I hope I saved that list somewhere.

There's been a few nice pages which I miss. One about building Irrlicht on different platforms. Another explaining common terms. But yeah, it's been somewhat chaotic as someone once started organizing it - and left it half done with an organization skeleton which never got filled in with info.

Silly me. Nothing is lost on the internet.

Huh, I didn't even think about that one.
