i put myself in outside view It seems that when he doesn't move , he lies down .
Okay i am not sure of my english . I'll reapeat it in an other way : the player is at the horizontal , and floating in the air when he doesn't move .
Important : when he moves , he is normal.
The axes are at the good position .

Hard to say based on your description. It sounds like you have exported the model without a .cfg file and certain nodes (like the cam and eye nodes) are getting culled.

there was the default cfg file :

AlwaysExport:
eye
cam
mount0
//mount1
//jetnozzle0

NeverExport:
Bip01
Bip01 L Finger*
Bip01 R Finger*
Dummy*
Bip01 L Toe*
Bip01 R Toe*
start01
mountpoint
DELETE*
//Ski0
//Ski1
Light0
Light1
//Mount1
//Mount2

What must i do now ?

Check the dump file to make sure that the .cfg is actually being used. The information will be right at the top when you open the dump file in a text editor.

Also check the shape hierarchy at the bottom of the dump file.

yes , the CFG file is used .there is a "Begin reading config file ..."at the beginning of the dump file .

Hmm, I don't quite understand what is going on, based on your description. What happens when you look at it in the showtool?

In the showtool it works well but we first see the bottom of his foot .I need to rotate it so i see him from the front .
What does a normal config file should look like?(cuz it only can be the CFG file , i took the base skeleton of the green alien).
Argh . English is harder the night . :)
