IrrEdit is excellent, though a couple of features would make it much more useful

Hi, first of all, thanks for an awesome piece of software, it generates some excellent shadow maps, is simple and pleasant to use and of course, is easy to use with the irrlicht engine!

There are two things however which I feel would be extremely useful additions to IrrEdit.

The first of which is an ambient occlusion texture generator.
Since you have a shadow map generator, generating AO maps can't be too hard, and it would definitely make adding some depth and next gen feel to maps easier.

The second is a terrain painter. If terrain were editable in irredit it would be a lot easier to do things like villages, which have the occasional hill and sloped path along with houses. At the moment it's a bit hit and miss editing the heightmap and then attempting to put all of the static geometry in with the terrain.

I hope you take my suggestions into consideration, but if you don't then it's still a great editor :)

Thanks for your time.

Oh, and the ability to use bump map and parallax map textures would be extremely useful too.
