If you browse wiki from https://jmonkeyengine.github.io/wiki/sdk/sample_code.html#toolbar the link is working for Asset packs

Ali-RS commented

I found some more from this page:
https://jmonkeyengine.github.io/wiki/sdk.html

Audio and Effect Track Editing
Animation and Attachment Bones Editing
App States and Controls

Unfortunately i could not find working link for them even in webarchive :

I have went back through the pages up to chapter 9 and these are what's left of broken links as of this posting date. First one is from the SDK itself.

I will post more if found in a few weeks.

Hey Ali,
You seem to be the one who has taken up the torch for updating the wiki. I have not learned how to use github or git (outside of just using it for versioning my own code) due to the steep learning curve required to just use jmonkey. I don't yet have the confidence that I am knowledgeable enough to make any changes myself which is why I have been listing all the problems with the wiki here.

This thread should only be for broken links I feel so should I post the other stuff like typos and code errors in the wiki someplace else?

empirephoenix commented

Do not worry, git is not that problematic. basically on github you just do:
1.) fork jme in your own account button should be right top.
2.) clone your copy adjust whatever bugs you find.
3.) on github, after you pushed, make a pull request to jmonkeyengine.

After that it will appear, and can be commented ect. Also there is absolutly no risk of destroying anything, because you only work in a copy, and only after a review your changes are applied to the main repository.

mitm001 commented

I have forked it from DavidB link above and have tried hitting the edit button on the wiki page and it loaded the page so I will make an attempt next time instead of bothering Ali because I know he's working on his own code and I know how irritating it is to be interrupted.

I didn't notice the tiny buttons at the top of the wiki page actually did anything until just now. They make loading the page easy.

I will definitely make mistakes because there seems to be undocumented changes to the engine that I am finding out about by accident. Things you cant know about unless you have been following jmonkey for awhile.

Is there an "official" SDK repository? I am finding issues with it also.

Edit: By "official" I mean is this it, https://github.com/jMonkeyEngine/sdk

Ali-RS commented

Yes, i think better to put them in other issue track.

By "official" I mean is this it, https://github.com/jMonkeyEngine/sdk

Yes

Necro-Issue (because it's open and why bother with a new one)

There's a few broken on this page: https://jmonkeyengine.github.io/wiki/jme3/advanced/jme3_shaders.html

http://jmonkeyengine.org/groups/development-discussion-jme3/forum/topic/jmonkeyengine3-material-system-full-explanation

http://code.google.com/p/jmonkeyengine/source/browse/trunk/engine/src/core/com/jme3/shader/UniformBinding.java
(Above works, but it's to Google code so I'm pretty sure that's unintended.)

http://code.google.com/p/jmonkeyengine/source/browse/trunk/engine/src/core/com/jme3/scene/VertexBuffer.java
(Same)

Also, the pdf link at the very bottom is completely broken (the link itself, and the anchor).

mitm001 commented

You can always post it here.

Fixed

mitm001 commented

Unfortunately there is no page for it and nothing in archives so I commented out the link.

it's gone now

mitm001 commented

All links are now fixed in the new antora site. Start a new issue for any new broken links.
