Do you get any output when you run your program from a terminal?

I get

Code: Select all

PB_LoadEngine3DLibrary(): engine3d.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The Engine3d.so file is in the directory with the file, tbh I thought that was what you supposed to do with it.

Why did you create 3 topics for the same question ? Its a mess.

Anyway, since 4.30 you can call InitEngine3D() with a filename to specify the engine library. So try something like InitEngine3D("./engine3d.so") or alternatively with a full path.

Ah thanks Freak, soz about the posts. Why isnt the InitEngine3d command properly documented?

This was a last minute change iirc.

The path in InitEngine3d doesnt work either, will send Fred the source for it so he can have a look.
