Are you sure you updated to last revision ? It seems like fixes were not applied to your local copy :(

I'll get a fresh copy and try again - :D

A fresh copy did it. I am a bit puzzled by that since my last copy was only 2 days ago but very happy and grateful.
Thanks much

You're welcome :)

Sorry to say I am lost again ...
These instructions from earlier answer building QT stuff
-------------
"Create a folder for OVQT, place the binary in that folder and the content of the following folder:
code\nel\tools\3d\object_viewer_qt\data
Create a subfolder called "plugins" and place in that subfolder the following plugins:
ovqt_plugin_core*, ovqt_plugin_disp_sheet_id*, ovqt_plugin_georges_editor*, ovqt_plugin_landscape_editor*,
ovqt_plugin_log*, ovqt_plugin_object_viewer* and ovqt_plugin_sheet_builder*."
--------------------

I found and copies most of this but
"place the binary" part --- which binary?
(This really is a maze of files, you guys are impressive finding your way around in it)

OVQT binary what else :).
You will find it in build/bin/Release.

With the last update you will have to add a xml file per plugin in the plugin folder.
Each xml file is located in the plugin source folder, for example:
code/nel/tools/3d/object_viewer_qt/src/plugins/ovqt_sheet_builder/ovqt_plugin_sheet_builder.xml

When you understand the logic, it's no more a maze :).
Some tools are in dev state, but in the future there might be some packages.
The tools are evolving to fast to maintain a handbook during dev state.
But you would have the last infos on irc (#[email protected]).

Very cool Georges at least is working. :D (well part of it I think I still need to do some stuff so it find the images)

The object viewer however has a problem - it tries to start - flashes a logo screen (I think) and dies
poking around logs trying to identify problem:
the program log

----------------------------
So its finding its plugins but no clue what its looking for next when it dies

Then I found this in the system log:

chetty-desktop kernel: [525272.066276] zviewer¹³²⁵⁶: segfault at 0 ip 000000000040df09 sp 00007fff4012cee0 error 4 in zviewer[400000+13000]

Did you add the xml files next to the plugins ?

I copied over the folders from plugins, each has an xml file in it.

You mustn't copy the plugin folders.
You have to copy the plugins itself and the xml file of the same name.

I will build OVQT on linux for myself.

ow, sorry to make you go to the trouble. I'll do as you suggest but will take a bit because I have fiddle with stuff so much now I am going to start with a fresh build. Just to make sure the files are absolutely clean.

Well a complete rebuild and back to the same point. I did discover that if you try to start the viewer without setting up the plugin folder it asks for a path.

Any luck with getting world viewer going on linux? (ubuntu)

Sorry i was busy with something else.
I will install CentOS and build ovqt soon.

oh very nice if you try it out with centos.
I been a bit distracted to, just getting back to things and figuring out what to try next.
:D
