I also use starfire in my applet (
http://membres.lycos.fr/franckcalzada/Billard3D/Pool.html
<http://membres.lycos.fr/franckcalzada/Billard3D/Pool.html> )
I have no problem loading 3DS files either in applet or application mode.
Here is my code:
TransformGroup theModel =
loadMyObjectURL("3ds/PoolTable.3ds");
public static TransformGroup loadMyObjectURL(String fileName) {
URL url = PoolUtil.getMyURL(fileName);
String urlBase = Pool.getDocumentBase().getPath();
Debug.log(
Debug.INFO,
PoolSceneGraph.class,
"loadMyObjectURL",
"url={0}, urlBase = {1}",
url,
urlBase);
Inspector3DS loader = new Inspector3DS(url); // constructor
loader.setURLBase(urlBase + "resources/3ds/");
loader.setTextureLightingOn(); // turns on texture modulate
mode
loader.setTexturePath(urlBase + "resources/3ds/");
// optional alternate path to find texture files
loader.parseIt(); // process the file
TransformGroup theModel = loader.getModel();
// get the resulting 3D model as a Transform Group with
Shape3Ds as children
return theModel;
}
public static URL getMyURL(String str) {
URL url = Pool.class.getClassLoader().getResource(str);
Debug.log(
Debug.INFO,
PoolUtil.class,
"getMyURL",
"filename={0}, url = {1}",
str, url);
if (isApplet) {
Debug.log(
Debug.INFO,
PoolUtil.class,
"getMyURL",
"applet method"
);
try {
url = new URL(getDocumentBase(), str);
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Debug.log(
Debug.INFO,
PoolUtil.class,
"getMyURL",
"filename={0}, url = {1}",
str, url);
}
return url;
}
Hope it will help you.
Regards
Franck

Subject: [JAVA3D] Starfire loader and JAR files
Hi
I wonder if anyone could help me? I have been using the
starfire 3DS
loader for a while now and its great! The problem is with
deployment, I
cant seem to get it to load from a jar file. I know I have
the
directories etc correct, so I just need to know how to do
it? Code
snippet:
System.out.println("3DS FILE: " + fileName);
System.out.println("URL BASE: " + t);
Inspector3DS loaded3DS = new Inspector3DS(fileName);
loaded3DS.setURLBase(t);
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks
Ben
