View Full Version : Display 3D objects ?
Hi,
Apart from the F16 demo, i haven't seen any 3D object displayed in a WWJ window. Is it possible ? I haven't seen any class seeming to implement this. Is it planned ?
It was quite limited with DirectX, but could be better using JOGL, isn't it ?

I dont think there is any specific support for 3D models yet. You can still write you own model loader and renderer and use it from a RenderableLayer for example.
It may not be relevant, but i did 'build' some simple cubes with filled Polylines : http://patmurris.blogspot.com/2007/06/growing-box-like-structures-inside-wwj.html
It would be nice to have an extension like landmark extension found in worldwind in which we can use and extend from esp. for opengl newbies like myself.

When it comes to 3D models format, i guess that many candidates could be considered. What would be your favorites or suggestions ?

I am not quite sure but seems like 3ds is a format that is easily available for free download. I remember having to convert a few 3ds model to directx format for use in worldwind.
