Hmmm you could add some scalar to the translation...
model.getRoot().translate(
      -1.5f * targetPosition.x -model.getRoot().getTransformedCenter().x,
      -1.5f * targetPosition.y -model.getRoot().getTransformedCenter().y,
      0);

With 1.5f being your scalar... Which could be any value up to you :)

Oh my bad...

model.getRoot().translate(
      -targetPosition.x -model.getRoot().getTransformedCenter().x,
      -targetPosition.y -model.getRoot().getTransformedCenter().y,
      0);

I hope this will work...

Oh hmmm, well you could try to swap this:
model.getRoot().translate(
      targetPosition.x -model.getRoot().getTransformedCenter().x,
      targetPosition.y -model.getRoot().getTransformedCenter().y,
      0);

To:
model.getRoot().translate(
      -targetPosition.x +model.getRoot().getTransformedCenter().x,
      -targetPosition.y +model.getRoot().getTransformedCenter().y,
      0);

Which should swap the translation direction into the opposite X and Y direction.

I guess it's best to do the translation when initializing your objects. (So it's just executed once rather than nonstop)
If you really need to do absolute translation during draw calls I guess this could work:

Private variable somewhere in your renderer class:
private SimpleVector absCoords = new SimpleVector (3.3f,3.3f,3.3f);

In your OnDraw loop:
yourObject.translate(absCoords.x -yourObject.getTransformedCenter().x,
absCoords.y -yourObject.getTransformedCenter().y,
absCoords.z -yourObject.getTransformedCenter().z);

This should pretty much keep your Object3D at the absCoords location. Even when you change absCoords during runtime it should still work :)

the camera took the spaceships centerposition so it put itself on the spaceship so I cant see him :P. Here is my code https://1drv.ms/u/s!AvWnW88CHl4QhQ3HZryfAKLpa139
That was kind of the idea of the code I gave you...
But try messing a bit more with the second line.
The first line puts the camera at the center of the spaceship and the second line should move the camera 'backwards' with a certain distance.
Try increasing the value of this distance (I'd say somewhere between 3f and 21f...? But it depends how big your spaceship object is too...)

camera.setPosition(spaceship.getTransformedCenter());
camera.moveCamera(Camera.CAMERA_MOVEOUT, someDistance);

but im using the jcpt-ae. How can I load a texture into the Texture?
Eh... I suppose you're making an Android app... right?
You can use load images from drawables in Android and turn it into a Bitmap and then turn it into a Texture
http://www.jpct.net/jpct-ae/doc/com/threed/jpct/Texture.html
http://www.jpct.net/jpct-ae/doc/com/threed/jpct/util/BitmapHelper.html
Tip: since OpenGL prefers textures with sides that are a power of 2... I recommend you to place the images in a 'drawable-nodpi' folder so Android won't resize these...

Hmmm, I see...

What about:
camera.setPosition(spaceship.getTransformedCenter());
camera.moveCamera(Camera.CAMERA_MOVEOUT, someDistance);

someDistance is a float value that would be totally up to you :)

Something like that?

Support / Re: Why does jPCT-AE need to keep the texture in the VM memory?
« on: January 06, 2017, 11:37:08 pm »
Well for example this texture: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:ESO_-_Milky_Way.jpg
On lower resolution it looks uglier than with 8192x4096...
So I suppose that's why I thought splitting it into 4 parts would reduce the maximum VM memory usage at a point. (which does happen; but the result is not satisfactory...)

Is there another solution? To load textures this way to not hit high VM memory usage and still get the textures to work properly on the Object3D's vertices?

Basically like in this fragment shader:
Code: [Select]
precision highp float;
precision highp int;

uniform sampler2D textureUnit0;
uniform sampler2D textureUnit1;
uniform sampler2D textureUnit2;
uniform sampler2D textureUnit3;
varying vec2 texCoord0;

void main() {
float xVal = texCoord0.x;
float yVal = texCoord0.y;

vec4 base;

if(xVal < 0.5){
// tex0 or tex2
if(yVal < 0.5){
// tex0
base = texture2D(textureUnit0, vec2(xVal*2.0,yVal*2.0));
}else{
base = texture2D(textureUnit2, vec2(xVal*2.0, yVal*2.0 - 1.0));
}
}else{
// tex1 or tex3
if(yVal < 0.5){
// tex1
base = texture2D(textureUnit1, vec2(xVal*2.0 - 1.0,yVal*2.0));
}else{
// tex3
base = texture2D(textureUnit3, vec2(xVal*2.0 - 1.0,yVal*2.0 - 1.0));
}
}

gl_FragColor = base;
}It works but it kind of looks ugly around the borders of the textures...
I actually used texture.setClamping(true) so not 'false' to make it look better around the borders which kind of worked.
But it only looks better for higher resolution textures.
Let's say I have 4 lower resolution textures, then these borders become visible again which I don't really want. (it should just work like a single texture)

See attachment for clarification :)

I wanted to optimize texture loading so I tried splitting the texture into 4 parts.
So a 8192x4096 texture now is 4 * 4096x2048 textures.

So why split?: Because I'll be uploading the texture after it has loaded and textures use a lot in VM memory and I thought this would be a nice solution to split the textures, so the VM memory doesn't go up as much as with a complete texture...

I added these 4 textures to the Object3D and in the shader I'd use the texcoords to select which texture to use (and change the texcoords so it draws the texture properly on the Object3D's vertices)...
However, the results seem kind of ugly and it's not as I hoped it would be... Using a complete texture in the shader looked better than 4 split textures. texture.setClamping(false) helped but it's still kind of visible on the Object3D that the textures are split...

Is there some way to merge these 4 textures into 1 texture without the Bitmap stuff in Android since that obviously just uses memory? The textures are immediately uploaded after loading so the VM memory only 'spikes' up when the Bitmap instance is still used for uploading...
I suppose jPCT and OpenGL see these textures as texture layers but actually they're just next to each other.

This modified class should be suitable for circular shaped lensflare textures.
So your texture images can be reduced to this part of the circular texture image: http://etc.usf.edu/clipart/40500/40550/pie_01-04n_40550_lg.gif :)
I guess the original lens flare textures don't take up that much memory anyway but oh well...

I see, thanks for answering :)
And eh, nevermind the 16k resolution textures...
I guess I just got curious there

I have a small request however...
May I have the source code of the LensFlare class, learn from it, modify it and use it? (I'll probably end up writing my own class then)
So why?...
Well there's a few things I want to change/add I guess:
-> I want to use 5 textures in total
-> I don't want the burst texture to be repeated in the lens flare (that's where the 5th texture comes in)
-> I want to give the burst it's own scaling which isn't done with the global scaling
-> I don't really know how to get the 2D coordinates for blitting from this 3D world
-> I want to use 1/4th part of a 'complete texture'

My lens flare images are all spherical so...
I basically could just use 1/4th of this texture and blit it 4 times (by flipping the blit). (relying on the assumption that the LensFlare class uses blits and not it's own Object3D's)

And Merry Christmas by the way :D
