Hi, Is anyone out there? This forum used to be quite active but for the last 2 weeks I've gotten no responses. Is Autodesk taking a summer vacation? Thanks. Jeff Berezin Syracomp, Inc.

Hi Dave! Here are my current questions. ——————————————————————————- ———— 1. Is it possible to use .cel files from cdk r2. Whenever I read in a .3ds utilizing a .cel, I get an error. We want to use these files because of their smaller minimum file size compared to .gifs. ——————————————————————————- ———— 2. I am new to MSVC and am trying to modify the 3dsanim example which came with CDK 2.0. As a Borland user, when you click on the project files, you can see the dependencies in a tree structure list, and just click on the source files to edit them. In Microsoft C, I bring in the 3dsanim.mak file, and can build and run it successfully, but I can't get the tree view to open up. When I click on the project folder (named DEBUG or RELEASE), nothing opens up. What am I doing wrong? I looked at the make file with a text editor and it looked fairly generic. ——————————————————————————- ———– Jeff Berezin Syracomp, Inc.

Jeffrey – Both of your messages 176478 from 6/21 and 177169 from 6/25th are still on the forum. Perhaps one of the reasons you got no answers were that they were addressed to All. Most of the times these get picked up on an administrative review of unanswered messages. I don't know why these weren't. We will be announcing soon a list of forum assistants who will be assigned to specific sections of the forum. Then you will be able to post directly to someone instead of to All. thanks for the heads up on your messages and someone will be back to you -if it is a question that Autodesk can answer. Anne

Jeffrey, Well… I did Ask, Didn't I? I'm Afraid that you'll have to try to get in touch with someone like Angela Pate or better yet If Brian Blau, 76042,3203 is still around I'm sure he could give you an intelligent answer to these very good questions.. So far all I've done with the CDK2 is play with the viewer. Murph'

Thanks for your reply. Brian did respond and answered both of my questions. Jeff

Sorry folks, its been a while since I have been up here. Here goes … > Is it possible to use .cel files from cdk r2. Whenever I read in a .3ds utilizing a .cel, I get an error. We want to use these files because of their smaller minimum file size compared to .gifs.< No, CDK R2 does not support the .cel file format. >2.

The make file you are using is essentially an external makefile. This makefile was not built with MSVC++ so it will not have the DEBUG/RELEASE structures in the project dialog. Hope this helps, Brian

Thanks a lot. This helps very much. I'll try recreating the project internally with msvc and see if that takes care of it. Appreciate your help. Jeff Berezin Syracomp, Inc.
