jReality - the forum

Focusing on dissertation completion and defense preparation with no upgrades 'till after then. I'll let you know if I get something new to test with after that.

Thanks

Any plans for dual depth peeling? I've tried tricks with rendering order that sometimes work, but to work right with multiple cameras, it seems ordering the items in the scene-graph before rendering is not always going to work. It seems that the order of rendering of polygons needs to be different d...

I want to find the distance to the nearest object along a camera path. When I attempt to call computePick, I get an error - Does it require double[4] coordinates instead of double[3] for parameters from, to? I assume then that from[3] and to[3] should be set to 1 then, correct? It seems reasonable t...

Any reason Matrix builder doesn't invert matrices?

I'd like to multiply by a matrices inverse, do some operations in the middle, and them multiply by the matrix uni-nverted.

I know it can be done separately, but isn't the point of the builder to make it easier?

Thanks,

Thanks, that's very encouraging. You're right. I'm trying to get a paper out this week, so that will be awhile, but I have to say the support for JReality is amazingly responsive. Kudos to you all!

tried this RoboticSystem scene = new RoboticSystem(); final Viewer viewer = JRViewer.display(scene); viewer.getSceneRoot().addTool(new ShipNavigationTool()); and this RoboticSystem scene = new RoboticSystem(); final Viewer viewer = JRViewer.display(scene); viewer.getSceneRoot().addTool(new FlyTool()...

If I missed anything important let me know... Most of this is probably irrelevant, but I tried to snag whatever might be remotely relevant.

If I use a timer on a SceneGraphComponent that is ultimately connected to a JRViewer, it works fine, but when using it with de.jreality.jogl.Viewer, it throws an exception when started: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalStateException: timer not attached! at de.jreality.tools.Timer.start(T...

This reproduces the problem rt.addViewer(viewer); // have to give the viewer time to initialize itself before doing offscreen rendering for (int i=0;i<3;i++) { try { Thread.sleep(5000); } catch (InterruptedException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } // note that the size...

No, not in my own code. This was working with the tutorial itself as delivered, and modifying it to pop up the image or change the delay, and for debugging, adding a loop to repeat the last part of the code a few times from the delay onwards. I was just evaluating and trying to understand but before...

Thanks for the response. You could declare it private till we get back to it with the factory approach, if that would be a reasonable compromise... However, would you want to preserve the current mirrored behavior of the cylinder walls and change the caps to be mirrored as well? Or fix the cylinder ...

OK, it works, intermittently. (race condition or initialization problem?) Sometimes if I start it up, and click in the middle as it's rendering, the window renders all black. I also tried waiting 5 to 10 seconds instead of one second and popping up a new JWindow to display the image. Often it would ...

Thanks. One small suggestion. Either resolve the jni paths at runtime or catch this in the Viewer and display the contents of jni/README Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no jogl in java.library.path at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(ClassLoader.java:1758) at java.lang.Ru...

I've created a new patch against the the repository 5518 version.

It's working ok now with the lights correctly configured, but there still seems to be a limit on the number of point light sources, around 6 not including the default sun and headlight of VRViewer.
