Hi Guys,
Sorry to post question about Panda3D in this Forum, but I have tried the whole day creating a ticket in the Panda3D community Forum and I am not able to login due the system is not forwading a validation code to confirm my id.
Here is the question:
I am working with Python 3.10.10 in Windows 10 and everythings works perfect. I have Mysql, Kivy etc. I decided to test Panda3D and download the latest version (1.10.13) from SDK. It was installed perfect and when I created my main.py file to test everyhing is ok.
‘’’
main.py
from direct.showbase.ShowBase import ShowBase
class MyApp(ShowBase):
def __init__(self):
ShowBase.__init__(self)
app = MyApp()
app.run()
‘’’
The problem starts when I tried to access the model directory with the following basic code as described int the Panda3D docs (Loading the Grassy Scenery — Panda3D Manual).
‘’’
main.py
from direct.showbase.ShowBase import ShowBase
class MyApp(ShowBase):
def __init__(self):
ShowBase.__init__(self)
self.scene = self.loader.loadModel("models/enviroment")
self.scene.reparentTo(self.render)
self.scene.setScale(0.25, 0.25, 0.25)
self.scene.setPos(-8,42,0)
app = MyApp()
app.run()
‘’’
I am receiving the following error message:
‘’’
:loader(error): Couldn’t load file models/enviroment.egg: not found on model path (currently: “/h/doc/python/panda3d;/c/Panda3D-1.10.13-x64/etc/…;/c/Panda3D-1.10.13-x64/etc/…/models”)

raise IOError(message)
OSError: Could not load model file(s): [‘models/enviroment’]
‘’’
I checked the file Config.rpc in the Panda3D-1.10.13-x64\etc directory and it is look like OK.
‘’’
These specify where model files may be loaded from. You probably
want to set this to a sensible path for yourself. $THIS_PRC_DIR is
a special variable that indicates the same directory as this
particular Config.prc file.
model-path $MAIN_DIR
model-path $THIS_PRC_DIR/…
model-path $THIS_PRC_DIR/…/models

I found a question in the Panda3D community, but the user was using Anaconda.

This is not my case. Please, if anyone has any idea let me know.
