To Paul: I'm sorry Paul, but you have understood nothing !
To Artur Matos: My answer was directly targeted at your specific request. I was not saying that you cannot make movies in java3d, all that I said is that you cannot do what you want, specifically: <cite>but I would like to find a solution that would allow me to post edit the generated animation (like changing the camera position) before creating an AVI/MPG file. Something like a editable animation format with the geometry info, that I could load into a scene editor and further tweak the animation and generate an MPG file afterwards. Or feed it into a raytracer (like POVRay) to generate better quality animations</cite> Yes, you can define animation in a vrml file, but either if you edit the file manually or if you use a separate tool. Editing the vrml file in a text editor is not what people usually want, so it's the second case, of a separate tool. And at that point you don't need java3d anymore because you already have the tool ! I don't know at the moment of any java editors of vrml files supporting animation. Maybe I'm wrong, and Justin or Alan can corect me about that, they know more about vrml & xj3d. Cheers, Florin -----Urspr�ngliche Nachricht----- Von: P.
