Your problem comes down to how any particular load chooses to implement the loading process. In some cases the loader will make Java3D nodes equivalent to the file format's nodes, in other cases they don't. At least in Xj3D we only make Java3D equivalents of renderable items. Since an interpolator is not renderable, you don't have access to them from a J3d loader perspective. The match between Java3D and VRML is very tenuous at best and there's a lot of hacking and workarounds we have to do to make things look semi-reasonable in this system. -- Justin Couch http://www.vlc.com.au/~justin/ Java Architect & Bit Twiddler http://www.yumetech.com/ Author, Java 3D FAQ Maintainer http://www.j3d.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------- "Humanism is dead.
