An approach I use (for shaded terrain rendering) is the following:
1. Set the color of the underlying mesh to Color3f(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f)
2. Define a material object :
material.setAmbientColor(color);
material.setDiffuseColor(color);
3. Set the Gourad shading model in ColoringAttributes
4. Set textureAttrib.setTextureMode(TextureAttributes.MODULATE) for the
texture
This has the effect of modulating the texture with the light shaded polygon
mesh.
Works well for terrain as it bypasses having to "burn in" a particular sun
position (albeit
at a possible performance penalty).
