Hm thanks for that - but are you actually accessing the 3DS file from
within a JAR - I think this requires a different approach - I have
managed it now with this technique, but this is not really satisfactory
as it requires lots of changes to the existing code:
Loader3DS l = new Loader3DS();
l.noTextures();
l.setURLBase(tex);
try{
Scene s = l.load(fileName);
BranchGroup b = s.getSceneGroup();
branchGroup.addChild(b);
}
catch(Exception e){}
thanks
