Well, it seems as if the animation wasnt played after all... i checked what the "isBehaviorSchedulerRunning()" says and it says "false"... even after i started it manually... is there any way to start it? :(

You need to set a repeating alpha trigger so that it will loop.

Aaah, the "SchedulingBounds" property was "null"... so i set it to "new BoundingSphere". But now it seems as if the animation was played only once, is that normal? and if so, is there a way to create a loop?

You'd need to know more about how that loader is setting up those behaviors. Do they have valid bounds? Is your view platform within the bounds such that they will be active? What is triggering them to run?

But well, does any1 know whats wrong with my code? I guess it maybe something with the compatiblity flags, but I'm not sure....
The loader I got creates a szene-object with geometry, behaviour nodes etc. But it just wont move...

Sorry, but no we have not made a trueSpace loader. However it could certainly be contracted to be done.

John:
By any chance does Starfire Research make a loader for trueSpace files?

That's correct, the Starfire Research 3DS loader does not attempt to load any animation data from a 3DS file. We recommend you load parts and implement your own animation in Java 3D code.

Hello everyone, I wanted to create a little Programm that, so far, imports a 3DS max
scene
and a model (with animation). The Scene is imported ok, the model itself too, but it just doesnt show any sign of animation... Btw, I'm using the loader as you can find it on jd3.org. The one found
on
www.starfireresearch.com doesnt create any Behaviour nodes (i guess you
need
them for animation...) Heres the code...
public class SuperApp { public static Universum universum; public static Loader3DS loader; //..
public SuperApp() { //.... BranchGroup szene = create(); universum.addBranchGraph(szene); universum.goLive();
window.setVisible(true); }

try { System.out.println("loading...."); scene = loader.load("room1.3DS"); System.out.println("raum done");
ball = loader.load("ball_animation.3ds"); System.out.println("ball fertig");
Behavior[] behavs = ball.getBehaviorNodes(); if(behavs == null) System.out.println("no behaviours...!"); else System.out.println("number behaviours: "+behavs.length);
} catch (Exception e) { System.out.println(e); System.exit(1); } if(scene != null) ret.addChild(scene.getSceneGroup()); if(ball != null) ret.addChild(ball.getSceneGroup());
ret.compile(); return ret; } }
public class Universum extends SimpleUniverse { //... public BranchGroup navigators; public BranchGroup lights;
public Universum(Canvas3D canvas) { super(canvas); navigators= new BranchGroup();
navigators.setCapability(TransformGroup.ALLOW_TRANSFORM_WRITE);
lights = new BranchGroup(); lights.setCapability(TransformGroup.ALLOW_TRANSFORM_WRITE); }
public void goLive() { //keyboard navigatior TransformGroup gr =
getViewingPlatform().getViewPlatformTransform();
KeyNavigatorBehavior kbnav = new KeyNavigatorBehavior(gr); kbnav.setSchedulingBounds(new BoundingSphere(new Point3d(0,0,0), 1000.0)); navigators.addChild(kbnav);
getViewer().getView().setBackClipDistance(BACK_CLIP_DISTANCE);
createLights();
navigators.compile(); lights.compile(); addBranchGraph(navigators); addBranchGraph(lights); }
