is it possible that i am using glscene wrong becouse i don't have problem when i dont use glscene.Can you tell me wich components should we put on the form at least having an exe file?i have glsceneviewer,glscene,glcandenser,timers and firefx any missing components? or should i make any setting special for glscene?

what actually happens if you hit F9, does your program run? if it does then use sysinternals filemon to find out where the exe is (while its still running) http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/FileAndDisk/Filemon.mspx

Try this hunkar:

Go to Project -> Options and click on the Directories/Conditionals tab.

You're interested in the Output directory here. If there is anything inside it then look at that directory. If not then there are a few possible places we might be able to check.

And welcome to PGD! ;)

I aim to please. ;)

Now I'm not sure where exactly this belongs... It's more of a Delphi Basics topic, no? Or is it specific to a demo or example project that comes with GLScene? If the examples are stored with these funny directory locations then this is indeed the place. Just want to confirm this one way or the other though...

everything is fine now i was thinking if my glscene is demo or not but now i am sure it is not a demo:) it works fine,but i have a laptop with 8 mb of display memory i think it is gonna be really difficult working with glscene by using this 19th century pc:)i tried direct x with truevision 3d component and with my pc it works better than glscene.which one do you suggest working on glscene or truevision3d or any other free component??i can't give money at the moment becouse still trying to learn...??
