Probably the biggest n00b question you guys have ever faced.

Well, I'm using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Express.

I have all the llibrary and header files in the correct places.

When I run the program, it works, but then it says that it can't find "sydney.md2"

I tried putting the .md2 file in the same folder as the .exe, but that didn't work.

I tried putting a direct link in the .cpp file, eg, "C:\irrlicht-1.2\media\sydney.md2", but that didn't work.

I'm sure I'm overlooking something really simple...

You have to set the binary path somewhere on your project settings. In VC6 it's on the Debug Tab, Working Directory.

ya it is a very easy qustion basiclly i will give u an example
( smgr->getMesh("media/dad.3ds") );
u will find this line in your code this means that u must put it in the media folder and then put the media folder beside your .exe
did u understand!!!!

Thanks to both of you!

I couldn't find anything about the binary path in VS 2005, but omar's suggestion worked!
