Does it write an error log to your desktop??
Bug confirmed and damn annoying, funny thing is, it shows up sooooo randomly meaning I could run the demo so many times just fine, and then all of sudden have it crashing on me at the start up.
Bug is due to SPHERE_MAP passed as parameter to TexCoordGeneration…
The error log blames it on my ATi openGL driver, atioglxx…
/me shrugs, get me TextureCubeMap and I’ll make it better
I have an idea for JCD, how about a single app that can run all your demos from the click of a button. Maybe with a pluggable interface so you add more demos later on… would be nice to see all of them in a suite 
The swimmer is pretty funky btw,
Kev
^Genius ;D
Will do so, actullay I’m flying to Germany tomorrow for a week, then I’ll stop by Paris to finally settle for another 2 weeks in Tunisia, therefore I’ll barely have any spare time to code for about a month.
I still have few demos laying around, procedural textures, physics, heightmaps etc…
Will start coding again as soon as I get back home in Massachusetts 
Are you on holidays for one month? I wish I had the money and time to do this. :
Yup, done with school for this semester and it’s time for the anticipated winter break ;D
About the money, well I worked my butt off to afford my trip, besides I know few people here and there so I won’t be charged the outrageous hotels expenses where I stay
This is on my work machine with an Intel 82845G/GL card and Win2K:

Totally unnecessary kevglass. Try running javaws without any options. Assuming your version of javaws is current, you’ll see a nice little list of javaws applications. In the “Location” field, type the URL of this forum topic:
http://www.java-gaming.org/cgi-bin/JGNetForums/YaBB.cgi?board=xith3d;action=display;num=1071038323
Hit return. You should see a current list of JCD’s demos. To save this, go to View->Add Entry and give it a name like “JCD’s Xith Demos”. Now, any time you start javaws with no options, you can go to View->JCD’s Xith Demos and see an up-to-date list of his demos available to run right from the javaws application manager.
HTH
Well, yes, thats great… but each and every webstart has its own Xith jar… although this might be nessercary in some cases… if it was just one download it would save some download
Of course the other side is some people can’t use webstart so it’d be nice for them to have a downloadable collection…

Several Xith3D apps can share a single xith3d.jar file - we do that at xith.org. Infact the only difference between any of the demo’s in a single collection is the main class attribute of the JNLP file. The only difference between the collections of demos is the “resources” they use.
Will.
humm- i turn the box upside down and the water dont fall out LOL-- top stuff as always…
what about volumatic fog effects? anyone?
Greetings from Tunisia where I m currently enjoying some great vacation ;D
Got some good and bad news too:
Good news first: I got per pixel lighting to perfectly work.
Bad news: Can t upload the demo as well as the source till I get back home, Massachusetts 
Well take care of yourselves fellas
c ya soon
have a great time there- hope u love salt lakes! amazing in the morning ‘a must see- the sun coming up’!
Demo Release tonight
Tada, check the first post
PS: Hey William, can I have both Water and PPL demos up on the demo page please?
Edit: I had to modify the TextureShaderPeer to add the DOT3 extension,
Looks great! What sort of FPS are you getting out of it and on what card?
I ask since I implemented per-pixel lighting on a non-trivial scene with shadowed area support but couldn’t get it running fast enough to implement the game.
Kev

[/quote]
Can you submit a diff to IssueZilla, so we can apply it to codebase?
Yuri
Ok PerPixel Lighting source code is up on the first page
The reason behind the delay in posting it is because I had to sit and think about my very OWN algorithm to make a pretty torus with lotta flexible parameters
My approach to PPL, unlike many demos I’ve seen floating around on the web, will work with ANY model or mesh out there, not just torii.
As I mentioned before, I had to modify the TextureShaderPeer class to add the Dot3 extension.
Problem is, I don’t think I’ve implemented it the right way since Java3D’s version of this demo is a tiny bit different.
Let me show you:
Java3D
textureAttributes[0] = new TextureAttributes();
textureAttributes[0].setTextureMode(TextureAttributes.COMBINE);
textureAttributes[0].setCombineRgbMode(TextureAttributes.COMBINE_DOT3);
textureAttributes[0].setCombineRgbSource(0,TextureAttributes.COMBINE_TEXTURE_COLOR);
textureAttributes[0].setCombineRgbFunction(0,TextureAttributes.COMBINE_SRC_COLOR);
textureAttributes[0].setCombineRgbSource(1,TextureAttributes.COMBINE_OBJECT_COLOR);
textureAttributes[0].setCombineRgbFunction(1,TextureAttributes.COMBINE_SRC_COLOR);
textureAttributes[1] = new TextureAttributes();
textureAttributes[1].setTextureMode(TextureAttributes.COMBINE);
textureAttributes[1].setCombineRgbMode(TextureAttributes.COMBINE_MODULATE);
textureAttributes[1].setCombineRgbSource(0,TextureAttributes.COMBINE_PREVIOUS_TEXTURE_UNIT_STATE);
textureAttributes[1].setCombineRgbFunction(0,TextureAttributes.COMBINE_SRC_COLOR);
textureAttributes[1].setCombineRgbSource(1,TextureAttributes.COMBINE_TEXTURE_COLOR);
textureAttributes[1].setCombineRgbFunction(1,TextureAttributes.COMBINE_SRC_COLOR);
Xith3D (modified)
textureAttributes[0] = new TextureAttributes();
textureAttributes[0].setTextureMode(TextureAttributes.COMBINE);
textureAttributes[0].setCombineRgbMode(TextureAttributes.COMBINE_DOT3);
textureAttributes[0].setCombineRgbSource(0,TextureAttributes.COMBINE_TEXTURE_COLOR);
textureAttributes[0].setCombineRgbFunction(0,TextureAttributes.COMBINE_SRC_COLOR);
textureAttributes[0].setCombineRgbSource(1,TextureAttributes.COMBINE_OBJECT_COLOR);
textureAttributes[0].setCombineRgbFunction(1,TextureAttributes.COMBINE_SRC_COLOR);
textureAttributes[1] = new TextureAttributes();
textureAttributes[1].setTextureMode(TextureAttributes.COMBINE_MODULATE);
textureAttributes[1].setCombineRgbSource(0,TextureAttributes.COMBINE_PREVIOUS_TEXTURE_UNIT_STATE);
textureAttributes[1].setCombineRgbFunction(0,TextureAttributes.COMBINE_SRC_COLOR);
textureAttributes[1].setCombineRgbSource(1,TextureAttributes.COMBINE_TEXTURE_COLOR);
textureAttributes[1].setCombineRgbFunction(1,TextureAttributes.COMBINE_SRC_COLOR);
Check out the difference in the second textureAttribute setting.
When I try to copy the code just as it is from Java3D to Xith3D, I get a nice DOT3 bumped GOLDEN torus!!!
Anyways, here’s what I did to TextureShaderPeer.java
private static void setCombineMode(GL gl, int channel, int mode) {
switch (mode) {
case TextureAttributes.COMBINE_ADD:
gl.glTexEnvf(GL.GL_TEXTURE_ENV, channel, GL.GL_ADD);
break;
case TextureAttributes.COMBINE_ADD_SIGNED:
gl.glTexEnvf(GL.GL_TEXTURE_ENV, channel, GL.GL_ADD_SIGNED);
break;
case TextureAttributes.COMBINE_REPLACE:
gl.glTexEnvf(GL.GL_TEXTURE_ENV, channel, GL.GL_REPLACE);
break;
case TextureAttributes.COMBINE_MODULATE:
gl.glTexEnvf(GL.GL_TEXTURE_ENV, channel, GL.GL_MODULATE);
break;
case TextureAttributes.COMBINE_DOT3:
gl.glTexEnvf(GL.GL_TEXTURE_ENV, channel, GL.GL_DOT3_RGB);
break;
}
}
I might have screwed up and put the DOT3 extension where it doesn’t belong, but hey it’s Yuri’s Job not mine ;D.
PS: In response to Kev.
Using the first texture set, I get around 700 FPS on this Athlon 2.1Ghz, Radeon 9700Pro, NForce2 Mobo and 512 DDR.
The second texture set however, the ATi Radeon one, I get over 1000 FPS…
