ok you were right, I changed th activity name in the manifest.

Now I have this in my LogCat

If I understand well, It doesn't found the file. But the file is in the assets directory, and You can see the codes in the precedent post

ok but I don't see where tu put it, how to use it
I tried here, but the application still fails:

Thank you, I solved the first problem, by putting the 3ds file in the assets: there are no more erros.
But the applications didn't work.

I tried to use your tutorials. I have several 3ds files, but the applications fails each time:

the 3d file is in the "assets" folder, and is a 3ds valid file (I tested it on other 3d engine)

I don' succeed ton load any 3ds file, even a simple cube. (But i succeeded with a jpct cube (getcube etc)
   


Can you help me please?

I try to load a 3d model in jpct-ae.
I looked at all the tutorials and I think I understood, but I don't succeed to use the 3d files I have.

Indeed, I use the code that I found on this forum and which is present on tutorials for jpct. (-> http://www.jpct.net/forum2/index.php/topic,2076.msg15290/topicseen.html#msg15290)

As you see, I use one object: exquisitchair.3ds, that I have found on this site:

http://thefree3dmodels.com/stuff/furniture/exquisite_3d_chair/12-1-0-120

My problem is simple: How tu put his file in Eclipse ?

I have tried in the "res" directory, it's said error, "invalid resource directory name", I have tried without the extension, I have tried other 3dfiles, and I have tried to create a "raw directory" or an example directory and to change the path.
But the problem remains the same.

The code has nos errors, but of course I couldn't compile for the moment.

Can you help me please ?
