do not loading .iir files

I'll spell it out: you (yes, you) need to understand the very basic concepts of working directory, and relative file paths.

Once you understand them, then the problem will be obvious, as will the solution. If randomly moving directories and files around helps you to understand the issue, then that's fine, but your goal should be comprehension, not simply fixing your current problem.

but that is what I want: the problem to solve so that I am possible further with my fps. but I get also what you mean (I think that I that what you mean later go to learn)

i think someone needs to go to your workstation and setup the directories and project for you. maybe you have a VNC or pc anywhere installed, then let someone access your machine

i suggest getting a buddy/friend who is older or rather say has more computer skills. get your friend to explain the basic concepts to you. it won't take that long, though.

1. Extract irrEdit-1.4.2.zip to c: drive
so you will have c:\irrEdit-1.4.2

2. copy all your models to c:\irrEdit-1.4.2
e.g.
c:\irrEdit-1.4.2\mymodel1.3ds
c:\irrEdit-1.4.2\mymodel2.3ds

3. run c:\irrEdit-1.4.2\irrEdit.exe

4. Using irredit, save your project as c:\irrEdit-1.4.2\myScene.irr

5. continue adding your models to the scene

6. save again c:\irrEdit-1.4.2\myScene.irr

7. open your game code in your c++ IDE (say visual studio)

8. load the scene like this smgr->loadScene ('myScene.irr')

9. compile and link, assuming the output is compilation.exe

10. copy compilation.exe to c:\irrEdit-1.4.2
hence you will get c:\irrEdit-1.4.2\compilation.exe

11. run c:\irrEdit-1.4.2\compilation.exe
