Hi, I am not quite sure what your question is but I did notice this:
> I override this method to change the values in floatVerts > and set the new geometry to the Shape3D. I am not sure if this is what you are doing, but it sounds like you are calling setGeometry() or similar on your shape3D once you have made your changes. You do not need to do this. Updating your floatVerts[] using this method automically updates the geometry of your Shape3D.
