Hi > Did you get any answers to this question? I'm about to buy a > new PC video card and I'm curious how the 9700 does with Java3D
Well I can't tell for the 9700 but I just bought the 8500 very cheap. And well OpenGL Java3D performance is bad. I haven't figured out yet why, but the situation I noticed it in are when I use very small but many textures (texture size 4x1) and By_Reference Texturecoord. The first one is very strange as Radeon should perform extremly good with small textures (caching). But it is often slower than my old Geforce2mx400. (For both I'm using the latest vendor drivers). I'm going to try out DirectX version today.
