Converting to j3o in the SDK (missing JDK)

https://wiki.jmonkeyengine.org/legacy/doku.php/jme3:advanced:asset_manager

says

“Right-click an original model in assets/Textures/, and choose “Convert to JME3 binary”.”

This is not an option when I right click. What is wrong?

You probably don’t have a JDK on your computer, was there a warning at the start of the SDK about that? If you don’t know, just reinstall and make sure you have a JDK installed first.

Sorry for almost cross posting, but JDK isn’t the problem.

Yes it is, the screenshot clearly shows you run on a JRE.

How does it show clearly that I run on a JRE? Would I get better result by uninstalling Java 6 and 7 that are installed, and only leaving the JDK that I have?

No, jme doesn’t give a warning on start up.

I tried changing the conf file to the folder

default location of JDK/JRE, can be overridden by using --jdkhome switch

jdkhome=“C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.7.0_13/”

But this does not help.

appending /bin to the end of that string does give the warning you were looking for though.

Also, I don’t see the point of you setting the question to “resolved” when I haven’t got my problem solved yet.

Well the core SDK plugins are disabled which only happens when a JRE is used to run the SDK. This also explains why you can’t convert to j3o files or do anything jME-related. Re-enable the core plugins if you now run on a JDK or reinstall the SDK after you made sure your JDK is installed correctly and so that it is available to the user that you install the SDK for.
