[JAVA3D] WinXP, Java 1.4.0, and Java3D 1.2 beta 1?

2002-04-06 Thread Kevin Duling
Does this combination work? I just reloaded my laptop and I could swear I had installed this combination before. But I also remember a post awhile back saying that it can't be done and that beta2 would address this. Since beta2 isn't available yet, is there a work around? Any way to get this w

Re: [JAVA3D] How to create models for loaders with alpha transparency??

2002-04-03 Thread Kevin Duling
If I understand what you're after, Milkshape3D will do that for you. You can define both a texture and an alpha texture. Then there's a couple of loaders you could use (one of which is mine). Milkshape can also import your 3DS models. >From: Scott Mobile <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: Discuss

David, It looks like your method of handling terrain is similar to the tile-based system described in Game Programming Gems 2. This is the same approach I'm using. It may not be as sexy as ROAM or VIPM, but it's reputed to be faster. And I believe it's far more scene-graph friendly. The trick

Leyland's MD2 loader supports behaviors. With luck, my Milkshape loader will by the end of the month. The Lightwave (LWS) loader provided by Sun in the Java3D SDK does, also. - Original Message - From: "Manuel Braun" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, September 23

You're not loading the variable 'texture' up with the texture you loaded in from TextureLoader. Replace this line: Texture2D texture = new Texture2D(Texture.BASE_LEVEL, Texture.RGBA,image.getWidth(), image.getHeight()); with this one: Texture texture = loader.getTexture();
