Are you using lights ? Maybe you have only directional / spot lights and
forget to add any ambient light.

Cheers,

Subject: [JAVA3D] Underside of my QuadArray geometry black, topside OK


Hi Guys

I have created a QuadArray in my scene that is like a ribbon twisting
around, made of lots of little quads next to each other. When you look at
this therefore you get to see topside and underside of the ribbon.

Although I have set my normals, I am only seeing one side and the other is
black. As I rotate it so that the black side becomes the top it colours in.

I have seen vaguely similar posts about this but no resolution. I am using
polygon fill and no cull for PolygonAttributes.

Thanks!

ADC.
