Depends on what you want to do. If is simple rotate and translate animations, eitehr will do. if you want more complex animations such as morphing, only Xj3D will do that. Add in scripting support requirements and you definitely want to head to Xj3D. However, if you wan to use Sun's serialisation code to save the scene graph to .j3d files, you';ll needs the older code as Xj3D does not, and never will support that. -- Justin Couch http://www.vlc.com.au/~justin/ Freelance Java Consultant http://www.yumetech.com/ Author, Java 3D FAQ Maintainer http://www.j3d.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------- "Look through the lens, and the light breaks down into many lights.
