3d Web animation is easy with Java & you can use 3d Studio Max models exported as VRML & loaded with the Sun VRML Loaders and animated with Java3d or Java 1.1.
Studio Max 3d "BiPed" Animated with Java3d, Java 1.1 ---------------------------------------------------- http://www.frontiernet.net/~imaging/shout3d/models/StudioMax_Biped.wrl http://www.frontiernet.net/~imaging/H-Anim_Avatars.html ^-- double click on "Studio Max Biped" or click once & press "Load" ( Shout3d Java 1.1 VRML Rendering Engine ), the SAME model ALSO works with the Sun VRML Loaders with animation. - works with animation ( shown ), drag mouse for rotations. VRML animated with Java 1.1, Java3d by Nasa & Me: ---------------------------------------( with Sun VRML Loaders ) including Mars Rover & Space Shuttle VRML Models & "3ds" models http://www.frontiernet.net/~imaging/terrain_rendering.html http://fastscript3d.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery.html http://fastscript3d.jpl.nasa.gov/vrml97.html http://fastscript3d.jpl.nasa.gov/FS_MODEL/vrml-roverR.wrl http://fastscript3d.jpl.nasa.gov/FS_MODEL/vrml-shuttleR.wrl http://www.frontiernet.net/~imaging/shout3d/models/planetary_earth_moon.wrl http://fastscript3d.jpl.nasa.gov/FS_MODEL/Bender.3ds Sun's Java3d Fly Through Demo & Selman's VRML Picking Demo --------------------------------------------------------- http://www.frontiernet.net/~imaging/games_with_java3d.html Blaxxun, Spazz3d, and Shout3d also have tools for exporting VRML from Studio Max 3d, which can then be animated with Java 1.1, Java3d, or the plug-ins. Human Animaton of Web3d.org's VRML based H-Anim Avtars with Gestures and Sound can be done in a browser ( or out ) with Java3d on Windows & Linux without certificates, despite the lies and misinformation from Prentice-Hall and the Yumetech liars as you can see in the above web page images and Java 1.1 programs ( with Protos removed when Shout3d is used ). | Hi all! | | I'm using Starfire's 3ds loader to load 3DMax models. | | During the load process it looks like to be everything OK. | | But after I followed the (Starfire's) instructions nothing | shows up in my universe. | | What I'm doing wrong ?

This was exported from 3d Studio Max and animated with _ BOTH _ Java3d and Java 1.1 ( without Java 1.1 ) and you can see the latter animation here: http://www.frontiernet.net/~imaging/shout3d/models/StudioMax_Biped.wrl http://www.frontiernet.net/~imaging/H-Anim_Avatars.html Web3d.org, Navy PGS, NIST, & NSF VRML models can be animated with Java3d & the Sun VRML Loaders ( some files run without modification, some were modified ): HelloWorld ( Earth ), Nist Ceasar H-Anim Model, Navy NPS Diver, Shark --------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.frontiernet.net/~imaging/sc_girl_jumping_with_java3d.jpg http://www.frontiernet.net/~imaging/sc_web3d_org_hello_world.jpg http://www.web3d.org/TaskGroups/x3d/translation/examples/HelloWorld.wrl http://www.web3d.org/TaskGroups/x3d/translation/examples/KelpForestExhibit/Shark2.wrl http://www.web3d.org/TaskGroups/x3d/translation/examples/HumanoidAnimation/NancyDiving.wrl http://www.web3d.org/TaskGroups/x3d/translation/examples/HumanoidAnimation/AllenDutton.wrl http://ovrt.nist.gov/projects/wear/caesarsegment/csr0099a/csr0099a.wrl http://www.virtuworlds.com/3DeZine_01/virtuportal/Vp4/X3Dnancydiver.jpg http://www.virtuworlds.com/3DeZine_01/virtuportal/nominees4.html http://ovrt.nist.gov/projects/wear/caesarsegment/csr0099a/csr0099a.wrl http://ovrt.nist.gov/projects/wear/caesarsegment/index.html http://ovrt.nist.gov/projects/wear/caesarsegment/caesar0099.jpg http://ovrt.nist.gov/projects/wear/caesarsegment/caesar0099.mov http://www.virtuworlds.com/3DeZine_01/virtuportal/Vp4/cml.jpg | [h-anim] ANN: CAESAR animations and HANIM and Nancy | --------------------------------------------------- | | From: Sandy Ressler ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) | | | Hello folks you might be interested to look | at a conversion scheme we've produced | (actually created by Qiming Wang here at NIST) | to convert CAESAR (3D Human body scans) into | [ Web3d.org VRML based ] hanim figures... | | go to: | | http://ovrt.nist.gov/projects/wear/caesarsegment/index.html | | | NAME: Sandy Ressler TELE: (301) 975-3549 | USMAIL: National Institute of Standards and Technology ... | 100 Bureau Drive STOP 8940 | Gaithersburg, MD 20899-8940 | EMAIL: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | WEB: | http://ovrt.nist.gov/people/sressler/sressler.html | | Open Virtual Reality Testbed: | http://ovrt.nist.gov/ | http://www.web3d.org/WorkingGroups/h-anim/hypermail/2002/0062.html Woman in Underware Jumping: Nist's caesar0099a.wrl VRML model --------------------------------- animated with Java3d in a browser http://ovrt.nist.gov/projects/wear/caesarsegment/csr0099a/csr0099a.wrl http://ovrt.nist.gov/projects/wear/caesarsegment/caesar0099.jpg http://ovrt.nist.gov/projects/wear/caesarsegment/caesar0099.mov http://ovrt.nist.gov/projects/wear/caesarsegment/index.html http://www.frontiernet.net/~imaging/sc_girl_jumping_with_java3d.jpg http://www.frontiernet.net/~imaging/vrml_loaders_working.html VRML 3d web animation is portable and easy with Java. -- Paul, Java Developer & Web Animator -------------------------------------- Imaging the Imagined: Modeling with Math & a Keyboard =========================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff JAVA3D-INTEREST".
