another idea is that you take the .ai format direct and load it into a
3d-modeller and afterwards exporting it into any desired 3d-format.

That's always a possibility, but I'd have to pick up both the SVG and X3D
specs. I don't know about X3D, but I've heard the SVG format is fairly

Have you took a look at the loader archive at http://java3d.virtualworlds.de
? At least for DXF there is one more loader listed there.
And by the
Take a look at Node#getLocalToVworld(...). It can give you the composite
transform. I am not completely sure, but you may have to multiply in the
view transform if you want the eye's perspective on the geometry, not just
the vworld coordinates.

I am trying to
figure out which tools to use for developing a 3D app in
Java.
Below are some links
that I have looked at. Each provides information, but I am still confused:
should I write to Java3D, JOGL, or xith3d? Which will have the best support and

Java3D
is open source now, or is well on the road to it.
Jogl
is different- lets you make openGL calls from java. There is also LWJGL which
does something similar but doesn't rely on AWT.
Xith
is based on Java3D but is aimed more towards gamers- if you are learning, you

Hi
Do you want to write directly to OpenGL, or are you trying to go in at a
higher level and use a scenegraph?
Java3D, Xith3D and jME are examples of scenegraph APIs, JOGL, and LWJGL
are OpenGL wrappers, although LWJGL includes sound and input. Xith3D sits
on top of JOGL and jME sits on top of L
Hi,
what I want to be able to have is not the t3d resulting from all the
multiplication of the t3d from the parent nodes. It the result of the coord
point of the geometry after applying the transformation. Let me explain by an
example.
I have a triangle array with only one triangle. The vertices
Just take the transform, which ever one you want, and run the points through
the Transform3D.transform(...) method. The resulting point is the one you
are looking for.
If you want to do this to an entire geometry, you will have to apply it to
each coordinate separately (someone correct me if I am

In my opinion the biggest disadvantage of LWJGL is the small experience of
the maintainers of this project. Don't misunderstand me, the work they are
