Michael, Imagine I have made a model in 3d studio max...a table with four legs...when I import this model into my java app, it's just a table with one leg. the others just aren't there...not wierd graphics fx no nothing...they just aren't there From: Michael Pfeiffer [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [JAVA3D] mnstarfire 3ds loader problems

Thats a little bit more clear and it sounds like a loader problem. As far as I know 3DS clones existing parts of the scene (like the legs). If the loader doesn't supports this correctly it may be that only one leg - the original - appears. On Tue, 9 Mar 2004 10:25:03 +0100, Flavius Alecu [EMAIL

Re: [JAVA3D] mnstarfire 3ds loader problems

Why don't you just try it ? Is it so complicated ? Try first to create one new leg, and then if you see 2 legs in java3d, then you know what's the problem. Cheers, Florin -Original Message- From: Discussion list for Java 3D API [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Flavius Alecu Sent:

[JAVA3D] Native Skinning

I was wondering how high a priority it would be for the folks at Sun to implement an extension to Java 3D that would allow users to use skeleton bones and skin techniques to deform mesh geometry? Such a system ought to be fairly straight forward: create a BoneGroup which extends TransformGroup to

[JAVA3D] manipulating imported models

I have one question regarding modelsSay I have a model made in 3d studio max and export it as .3ds. I load it into my game, but how do I control it? Let's say I have a tank and I want to move and rotate the turret...how is that done? Should I make two models and have the turret on top of the

Re: [JAVA3D] manipulating imported models

IIRC, the starfire loader has an interface to resolve submodels by name. Now you have to make sure that your artist names the submodels properly and uses the correct coordinate system! Flavius [EMAIL PROTECTED] schrieb am 09.03.2004, 11:43:32: I have one question regarding modelsSay I have

Re: [JAVA3D] mnstarfire 3ds loader problems

That's exactly the problem. If you use the wrong tool in 3D Studio Max cloning the legs rather than creating copies the clones won't show up when our loader imports the file into Java. As I recall, 3D Studio Max has three options when you go to duplicate an object but I don't remember off the

This is a heads up to anyone using the convenient GMatrix class. When you are working in say Finite Elements and you want a nice matrix construct that you can reduce (GMatrix.setSize(int int)), GMatrix for some reason uses huge amounts of memory to run this method. Maybe someone at Sun can work on
