I have been assured by some Cave vendors that only SGI boxes can control

I think the idea of having the Java3D community publish a benchmark (or series

benchmark data and we would be able to get an accurate picture of performance

Hi Kovalan,
You have to set the capability on a Geometry object. You can use the
getGeometry() method of class Shape3D. So it should look like:
box.getShape(Box.BACK).getGeometry().setCapability(Geometry.ALLOW_INTERSECT);
// and so on.
Regards,
Manu.

At Sense8, we developed a 3D graphics benchmark known as Indy3D which was

You can also use javaw instead of java to run your program so that the
user doesn't see or get left with an ugly DOS box used to spawn the Java

I agree that it'd be nice to have a "benchmark" Java 3D test. But
anyone that knows benchmarking would know that there are a lot of issues

Hi Folks,
I have noticed some interesting behavior when using
the Box class to create geometry in my scene graph.
Given the following code:

TransformGroup tableTopTrans = new
TransformGroup(tableTop);
tableTop.set(new Vector3f(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f));

This is the proper way for a Box to be constructed. The dimensions get
doubled so if you want 70 X 130 X 3.0 then use Box(35, 65, 1.5f, tTAp)).

As far as I know nobody has tried to systematically benchmark Java 3D.

the GeForce generates a huge improvement (2x to 4x) over the others but

how much of this is related to bus speeds, DMA and other hardware settings
