I think I was a little unclear about what I was needing. Getting the geometry
isn't the problem, My application constructs it as a TriangleFanArray (not a
simple primitive), and I am using the getCoordinates() method to pull the data.
The problem is exporting it in a useable format.
What I've had to settle for is, writing it out in .RAW format, then using
Crossroads to convert it to OBJ or DXF so I can import it into Maya. (the
surface I'm building in an hour in Java3D would take days to draw by hand in
Maya)
My problem is solved, but I still think it's importiant to have export classes
to complement the existing loader classes.
Thanks for your reply
