BetterCharacterControl

Hey guys,
I am currently creating my first own 3D Game with jME3. For the player i thought about using the BetterCharacterControl. But I cant import the class, and it doesnt even exists in my jME3. Do I have to download it seperately?

Sounds like you are running an old version of JME or maybe not importing it properly.

What @pspeed said, plus …

If you’re running the latest stable version of jME3, then when you start the IDE it will write “Running on jMonkeyEngine 3.0.4” to the “Output - Application” window.

I reinstalled it. It says “Running on jMonkeyEngine 3.0.0 RC2” now.

But now I have the BetterCharacterControl, so it doesnt matters :smiley:

So you are still using RC2, download the new 3.0 version.

I downloaded the new version… On jmonkeyengine.org. Is that wrong? I still get 3.0.0 RC2

When did you download it? Did you change the library settings of the project?

Again: I downloaded it today, and i did not change anything. How I already wrote, I now have the BetterCharacterControl. But im not getting 3.0.4, im getting 3.0.0 RC2

Possibly this helps:

You didn’t say that you downloaded it today, just that you downloaded it. You still don’t have the current libraries, did you run all updates (Help->Check for Updates).

You can’t always precisely determine the JME version from the “Output – Application” window because the version number doesn’t get updated for every release. In particular, 3.0Stable originally described itself as RC2
as I reported at the time.

True, I forgot to update that version string in the first 3.0 release but the SDK checks for updates when you install it first.
