I know this may sound a little bone headed at the moment, but have you ensured the
"COLLIDABLE" capability has been set on the appropriate nodes? I tried implementing
collision detection in Java3D with little success. It just got too hard to compute
contact points based on arbitrary geometries and handling static contact appropriately
was tricky. Maybe I gave up too easily. Just needs a good rethinking.

Subject: [JAVA3D] Collision Detection
Hi gang....
I am trying to incorporate collision detection into
my application. I have looked at the
TickTockCollision example that comes with the Java 3D
JDK and it seems straight forward. I have tried to
incorporate the code into my application with little
success.
I have attached a "CollisionDetector" behavior to a
piece of geometry. With debug statements, I know that
the behavior is getting initialized. However, when
the piece of geometry collides with another, there is
no "processStimulus" call... ( I have a debug
statement there as well ) Therefore, (a) I am not
getting my debug message and (b) the geometry does not
change colors as the example does...
So, I have some questions:
1) Does anyone have some example of collision
detection they can share??? I would like to see other
examples to compare..
2) Could someone give me a checklist of things that
must be in place for collision detection to work? I
did not see anything in the tutorial regarding this...
Thanks in advance,
Mark Beckman
