Re: [JAVA3D] Always visible???

Hi Gael, I always had the same problem. This till I used the approach Daniel Selman is describing (incl full code) in "Building the Java 3D Swing application" in his book Java 3D Programming. In his code he makes use of JPanel to place the Canvas. Works excellent. This book, if you don't have it,

[JAVA3D] How to Record a Java3D Animation?

Hi all,   I am preparing an animation in Java3D. My plan is first making all the objects transparent and then making them opaque gradually.   Is there a way to record this animation as a file (e.g. *.avi file) while it is running? Some people advised me capturing snapshots of the screen as

Re: [JAVA3D] Texture loading

Out of curiosity, have you tried loading the images using the Java 1.4 ImageIO APIs? I'm not claiming that it'll be better, but I observe that TextureLoader only appears to use either Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit() or JAI if it available. (Presumably because it can't assume the availability of Jav

Re: [JAVA3D] usinge ".max" files in Java3D

Our loader does require you to export to 3DS format from Max. As far as I'm aware nobody has documentation for the MAX format, thus it's difficult to create a loader for the MAX file format (certainly not something I'm going to spend time on without some documentation). - John Wright Starfire Re

I believe it might be that the default back clipping plane is too close...you may try setting the back-clip distance farther backusing: u.getViewer().getView().setBackClipDistance( 1000.0 ); Also, you may want to change the front-clipping plane as well if it's too far away...with: u.g
