VRML is a popular and widely used format 3d objects, it can contain 3d textured objects, animations and sensors and engineers at Sun developed VRML Loaders for Java3d and domated them to Web3d.org -- the organization that defines and develops the VRML Language, and people like myself have been happily using the VRML Loaders for Java3d since way back in the 1900's:
I have VRML human models that range in complexity from 160 to 45,000 polygons and many are available for free, all over the internet, and they can be animated with Java3d or 'pure' Java solutions for increased portability at the cost of speed: http://www.frontiernet.net/~imaging/sc_java3d_in_a_browser_with_vrml.jpg http://archives.java.sun.com/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind0110&L=java3d-interest&P=46030 http://www.frontiernet.net/~imaging/java3d_and_vrml.html > Hello ! > > I'm a new user of java3d and i would like to load a 3ds file with > animation.

MPEG-4 is an important, up-and comming Video standard based on the animation of H-Anim Avatars, you can animate H-Anim Avatars with Java3d and the Sun VRML Loaders.

Penn Group working under NSF grants has impared our progress and hurt our industry in which people in the private sector are losing there jobs. I'm try to find someone in the NSF with intelligence and integrity that will respond honestly to these problems and thus far, have found noone there that fits that description. If anyone knows of such a person, please let us know. -- Paul, Java Developer & Web Animator ----------------------------------------------------- "Imaging the Imagined: Modeling with Math & a Keyboard" cc: Prentice Hall : You and Aaron Walsh hurt Java3d & Web3d with your false information, just because Walsh & Couch aren't bright enough or failed for other reasons doesn't mean all of us are sloppy and slothful as they, and you. =========================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff JAVA3D-INTEREST".
