Building with egg support for load_model

C++ coding using Panda3D
#1

Hey !

Lately while I was proofing my project on several configurations, I compiled Panda3D 1.8.1 for both Windows and Ubuntu.
In the two builds I made, there seems to only be a single supported format for models: bam.

Panda3D was compiled with the options

makepanda/makepanda.py --everything --no-python --no-ode

Is there any reason why egg support wouldn’t be built in when these options are used ? Or is there something else I need to do to get the egg support ?

Thanks !

makepanda should have generated you a Confauto.prc that includes, among other things, this line:

load-file-type egg pandaegg

If for some reason you didn’t load Confauto.prc, or there were errors attempting to load libpandaegg.so, then you would lose the ability to load egg files.

Check that this file exists and that you’re loading it successfully.
