Did Java3D get faster? I don't have made any real benchmarks, but i think the frame rate got higher in my application. The list of open bugs is very long. Unfortunatly my hope that OrientedShape3D was fixed, didn't come true (yet). My background still gets messed up when i use this class. Another problem is that OS3D aren't displayed sometimes(resulting in flickering) when they are near to the eye point. Hope it will be fixed soon. I know i can use the Billboard behavior instead, but this class has its own flaws. OS3D would be the better choice if it would properly.
