There are several reasons you may not be able to see your model. Most likely is the size. How big is your model? Are you inside it? You say "I pointed the viewer to that 0.0 after I took it alittle back", but is your object hundreds or thousands of units big and you only stepped back a few units?
Another common issue is making a model with no material (thus invisible - we don't even load it). - John Wright Starfire Research > Dudi gil wrote: > > hi, > > I'm using the "com.mnstarfire.loaders3d.Loader3DS" to load a .3ds > model and I see nothing. > It's there, but I can't see it. > > Here is what I did: > > 1.
