[JAVA3D] Performance loss with 3DS-objects

2003-12-15 Thread Fredrik Andersson
Hello! I experience a great performance loss with the rendering when I add a object from a 3DS-file. I have add it both with texture and with out texture and it is still the same. I have developed a pretty big landscape and when I move around the camera everything works fine. But when the 3DS-ob

2003-12-15 Thread Michael Pfeiffer
Hi, is it possible that your 3d-model uses very much polygons? 3D-modelers create their objects by default with more polygons than necessary to make further editing easier (e.g. a cylinder would be possible with a resolution of 1 in its height, this kind of software creates them with more). That

Hello! Thanks for your reply! (Perhaps this question doesn't belong here then). Does any one know how to remove unnecessary polygons created by 3D-studio? Or can I do it from Java3D or does I have to do it from 3D-studio? Best regards Fredrik -Ursprungligt meddelande- Från: Discussion

Hi, the best way is to avoid them during construction. Elsewhere I'd recommend AccuTrans3D ( http://www.micromouse.ca ), it is able to remove edges which are close enough to each other and to create quads out of trinagles. Of course this results in a loss of quality. Michael On Mon, 15 Dec 2003 1

Danilo, I tried your API. It works great. And it all looks very professional. Especialy your docs are super. I have seldom seen such a well done package. I suppose we may see more good things from you in the future. At least I hope. So, please, keep on going. Dirk van Krimpen FreeShapes Internati

[JAVA3D] Text3D morphing

Hi,   I'd like to apply a morph behavior on a Text3D object.   To do so, I need to convert my Text3D object (which derives from Geometry class) to a GeometryArray object.   Do you know how to create a GeometryArray object from a text3D? Do you know if it's possible to apply a morph b

[JAVA3D] 'javaw' versus 'java'

2003-12-15 Thread Paul Brown
Hi, I'm developing a Java3D application that also uses speech synthesis. Java3D, as you all know, is pretty cpu intensive, the speech synthesis not so much. Unfortunately, during periods of significant 3D activity, the speech is delayed, paused and can become stuttering. I have tried playing around
