SH3F file TROUBLE!!!
Hi! I tried to create my own furniture catalog. I've made a ZIP file that contains PluginFurnitureCatalog.properties and PluginFurnitureCatalog_ru.properties; PNG prewiews of models and 3ds models in subfolders. Archiver is WinRAR 3.71. When I put the file into furniture directory and run the app... nothing happens :( Can anybody have a glance ans say, what's wrong???

P.S. Can I attach an example of my library? It's 60 KB only!

Re: SH3F file TROUBLE!!!
Hi, Maybe the problem is the compressing algorithm. sh3f files are standard zip files. Ensure Winrar to use deflate algorithm. Just in case, use the jar utility (it comes with the JRE) for help, go to the command prompt and type

jar

Help should be printed.
This is an example of a .cmd file to jar a directory:


set DIRECTORY="your_directory/"
set FURNITURE_FILE=my_furniture.sh3f
jar -cvfM %FURNITURE_FILE% -C %DIRECTORY% .

copy this code to a text editor and save it on your furniture directory's parent with .cmd extension. Edit your directory and furniture file, then double click on it.
please answer if it worked
Good luck!

Re: SH3F file TROUBLE!!!
Thank you for the answer.
I've resolved aforementioned problem by carefully examining my PluginFurnitureCatalog.properties. Models' dimensions in my file were starting with a capital letter ("Width" etc.). And it was the evil's root :)
