Dear experts,
My intention was to create RMI version of Networked Tour3D
example in the 3d book here:http://fivedots.coe.psu.ac.th/~ad/jg/ch21/index.html.
which is about moving sprites on multiple client and navigate together through virtual world simultaneously but i m failing.
i refactor the class Sprite3d to get the Transform3d from remote object on server so when all clients get the same transform 3d all change their position hence "Network tour of sprites in virtual worlds’ can be achieved .
i m beginner programmer and i dived into these advanced things and now i have no idea, why it is not working may be i m doing some silly mistake. I don’t know what to do and now the code is much i can’t paste all on some forum.
this is code in which the methods are calling remote but sprites are NOT moving simulataneously :
this is class which is getting the tranform3d from server other class on client site are calling this class for getting the objectgroup or transformgroup
this is remote class from where i m getting the transform3d:
package ServerSite;
// Sprite3D.java
// Andrew Davison, April 2005, ad@fivedots.coe.psu.ac.th
/* Sprite3D loads a 3D image, placing it at (0,0,0).
We assume that the object’s actual position is (0,0) in the XZ plane.
The Y position will vary but probably the base of the object is
touching the XZ plane.
Movements are restricted to the XZ plane and rotations
around the Y-axis.
An object cannot move off the floor, or travel through obstacles
(as defined in the Obstacles object).
Very sinmilar to Sprite3D in Tour3D.
New net-related code:
- a userName above the sprite that stays oriented along +z axis;
- return a detachable branchgroup for the scene;
- store the current rotation around the y-axis, and methods to return
and set it.

Other classes include behavior class and WrapNetTour3D according to changed design because of RMI may be there is some issue in those but first i would like to confirm and have some review on these main classes and why it is not working and how it can be implemented with RMI.(other files and code everything you can look at the link)
If somebody need i can send the whole project because i just wanted that working and i thought i did the major changes and spent lot of time on it.
please help i would be really thankful
