Irrlicht.NETCP is a .NET wrapper for Irrlicht. The project was started by Emmanuel ‘DeusXL’ Bossiere and the core team included Yevgen ‘Lester’ Yashchenko and Michael ‘Thoran’ Braitmaier. The project can be found on Sourceforge
Irrlicht.NETCP however was discontinued, as was its predecessor, Irrlicht.NET, so there is no real alternative to access Irrlicht from the .NET platform.
Irrlicht.NETCP was kindly picked up by Teravus, a core member of the popular OpenSimulator project and also the creator of the virtual world viewer named IdealistViewer. Irrlicht.NETCP – at the time – meant practically the only BSD licensed 3D engine that is easily accessible from C#.NET. As the OpenSimulator project also uses a BSD license and C#.NET, it only makes sense to use this platform.
IdealistViewer provided to be an excellent basis for further development – because of its compatibility with the OpenSimulator core – and Japan-based 3Di has developped its product on top of these technologies. As was the original intent, the sources for their development were released under a permissive BSD license. As this includes Irrlicht.NETCP, which also was changed significantly since both the original release and the IdealistViewer release and there are plans (and more importantly, actions) to further maintain it, I’m creating this repository for those who would need it.
