Hello! I am coding the solar system as a Java 3D model and have to incorporate huge bodies like our sun (radius 700,000 km) and earth (distance to sun 150,000,000 km, radius 6,000 km) as well as satellites (that's the fun part..) with a max-size of 10 METERS... Okay, I have set something like view.setFrontClipDistance(1.0d); view.setBackClipDistance(151000000000d); which gives me a pretty bad ratio (back to front) for z-buffering. Not surprisingly, the rendering get's a bit confused, but I need these large coordinates to display all three objects in their correct size and position. A ratio of 1.6E8 works fine, but going up to the needed 1.6E11 screws it up. Any ideas? Help? Thanks!
