In the java docs: There is a two step action:
1. set the texture coordinates in your geometry, where you specify to which texCoordSet you set the coordinates: "http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/3D/forDevelopers/J3D_1_3_API/j3dapi /javax/media/j3d/GeometryArray.html#setTextureCoordinates(int, int, float[])" 2. set the TextureUnitState in the Appearance object, where the index specifies to which textCoordSet will be applied the texture: "http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/3D/forDevelopers/J3D_1_3_API/j3dapi /javax/media/j3d/Appearance.html#setTextureUnitState(int, javax.media.j3d.TextureUnitState)" You may omit step 1 if you specify in the TextureUnitState a TexCoordGeneration object, i.e. if one of the texture should represent reflexions, refractions, spheric coordinates, etc. Regarding your guess, that's the most complicated approach ! You should use 2 shape3d's. Multitexturing was specificaly designed for combining textures at runtime, i.e. a basic texture with a reflected one or more elaborated efects. I just don't understand why you don't want to use different shapes. Can you explain the reason ?

Is there a place somewhere where I can read about this?
