Hi all !! I have tested several file loaders, such OBJ loader from java3d API, Starfire 3ds loader or VRML loader. The problem I had before was to testing them from applets, because navigators don't allow to read files from the local file system. Now the problem is solved, reading the model files as and URL, so they all work so. I'm trying to test NCSA portfolio to load several more fyle types. The file model can be passed as an URL also, but the problem is that some .properties files are read too, so here is where the applet gives the security exception. Is there any way to use portfolio from applets ? Maybe is there a way to not read .properties files ? Thanks in advanced !!
