Hey,
I have 2 problems with jMonkeyEngine SDK 3.0RC2.
Help please!

1.problem:

When i run jMonkeyEngine SDK 3.0RC2.
Main window appear and i got the pop up with :

Problem: The project uses a class library called “junit”, but this class library is not currently defined locally.
Solution: Click Resolve to download or otherwise automatically define this library.

Problem: The project uses a class library called “junit_4”, but this class library is not currently defined locally.
Solution: Click Resolve to download or otherwise automatically define this library.

and when i click “Resolve” appear:

Check your proxy settings or try again later. The server may be unavailable at the moment. You may also want to make sure that your firewall is not blocking network traffic.

If you have the missing “junit” library, you can resolve the reference problem manually using Library Manager.

..install the manufacturers driver, yeah ^^

is installed properly :slight_smile:

Then your card doesn’t support back buffers properly I’ afraid.

@SofinetiMihai said: is installed properly :)

The windows 8 drivers downloaded from the manufacturer’s site or the ones that came on the disk that came with the card? It seems to make a difference as I’ve seen other cases where only the latest drivers from the manufacturer’s web site work with JME.

I download tool from manufacturer’s site, this tool tell if driver is installed and if it’s last version.
