The loaders should really be able to accept model files specs as resource
strings. For example, the String path to your model would be something like
"com/myco/myproject/models/model1.mdl"
Then, whatever JAR holds the file should be included in the archive
parameter, and the class loader can be used to find the file. Not quite
sure why everybody writes loaders which just use File and URL specs...
resource specs are much easier with regard to deployment. My personal 3DS
loader takes resource specs, and then textures are based off the original
model file.
Have other authors of loaders considered this? Pretty easy to implement...
