Ashish I think you might get benefit from a debugger and stepping through your code. Anyway, the null is in your cg array. Some of the elements in it are null. I think the reason has to do with the fact that you are creating two behaviors -- each one has its own cg and even creates a new cg every

Re: [JAVA3D] multitexturing and OpenGL Extensions

its not the size of the texture. fetching texels is relatively cheap.   its the number of passes, and for how many pixels in the scene.  consider that each additional pass burns fill-rate.    so if you do this for an object that affects most of the pixels in the render-target, like terrai

We are doing the same thing as Philip recommends. But the base textures we are generating uniquely for all landscape patches according terrain maps, normals, blends, paths, roads and various and sundry other techniques. In fact it takes an hour on a 700 MHz machine to generate all the textures f

Re: [JAVA3D] multitexturing and OpenGL Extensions

Yes thats one of the problems with a lot of terrain algorthms (ROAM, etc). Most of these techniques concentrate on the geometry and don't handle the texturing very well. They work great until you try to texture them. If you go and see all the great screenshots of terrain engines at www.flipcode.c
