Re: [JAVA3D] [JAVA 3D] Performance Issues and Flickering

Hi, it's very hard to help without specific info. how do you move your spheres? i have had same problems by using the built in javax.media.j3d.PositionInterpolator. Then i wrote a a own class (Thread) for moving objects.   ObjectMoving Class 1. while endpoint not reached     2. wait a few milliseconds     3. get the Transform3D object from object     4. add increment to translation component (x, y ,z) of the transform     5. set the new transfrom to the object     6. go to 1 7. end of Thread   For me it worked better than the PositionInterpolator. Im sure a own class has less overhead than the PositionInterpolator class.   ---- Original Message ----- From: Ben Logan To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, February 22, 2003 1:31 PM Subject: [JAVA3D] [JAVA 3D] Performance Issues and Flickering Hi, I am having some serious performance problems with my 3D visualisation system. How can I improve performance and reduce flickering, the code is quite long so I wont show it here, but basically the scene renders some spheres and then re-draws them every few milliseconds in slightly different locations, the idea being that the movement of the spheres appears smooth, but it doesn’t. Any help would be much appreciated, I can show the code if anyone feels like offering specific help:) PS please don’t point me to Sun’s performance tuning guide, I’ve been through it a number of times.
