Irrlicht 1.0 released

I just released Irrlicht version 1.0. It includes some few new features and bugfixes since the last release and has been carefully tested. Some of the new features are: Enhanced software rasterizer: 32 bit rendering, dynamic lights, more materials (Thx to Thomas Alten!). Support for the Code::Blocks IDE Microsoft .dll hell awareness (no more abort and 'd3dx9_xx.dll not found' messages), Irrlicht will also operate if some of these dlls can not be loaded. Better support for orthogonal rendering and drawing to foreign windows, useful for creating 2D games, editors and 3D tools using Irrlicht. Improved Irrlicht.NET (root scene node, view frustrums, bounding boxes, ...) More precise picking gcc 4 support Bugfixes, other small implemented feature requests For a complete list, please take a look at the changes.txt file. Happy downloading. I'm quite happy to get this release out, and also wrote down a small summary of the development of Irrlicht until now, why Irrlicht 1.0 has been released now, and what will be done in the future, on my blog.
