While that may work, it's actually a workaround and i don't recommend it. It will bite you sooner or later. Your actual problem is, that you are calling Config.tuneForIndoor(), which itself enables portal rendering. But you are not using portal rendering and i don't recommend on doing so, so the best solution is to turn it off after calling tuneFor... To do this, simply set Config.doPortalHsr to false. You can then remove the call to setMainObjectId() and it should work fine.

"North and South" war klasse! Haben wir viel gespielt damals. Ein Remake wäre wirklich eine schöne Sache. MD2 ist primär ein Format für keyframebasierte Animationen. Du kannst damit machen, was du willst (in bestimmten Grenzen natürlich)...wenn du die Modelle selber machst oder halt jemanden findest, der dies tut. Wenn du fertige Modelle nutzen/modifizieren willst, dann sind die natürlich meistens für den Einsatz in Quake2 gemacht, d.h. sie halten die Arme so, dass eine Waffe dort Platz findet usw. Kann ok aussehen, muss aber nicht. Ob von unten, oben, links rechts oder schräg ist aber kein Problem.

The plane will appear at (0,0,0). Maybe your camera is at (0,0,0) too, so that you can't see it. Try to move back the camera or translate the plane into the screen and see if you can see it. You may also need to rotate it (-)90 degrees around X. Depends on how the terascene is actually build...i can't remember that exactly.

Do you see where my mistake is?

Looks quite ok to me...but...there is a rotateY(...) in placeModel(). Maybe that causes the wrong orientation? If that's not the problem: Are you sure that you are using 1.06pr and not 1.05 of jPCT? The code won't work correct with 1.05.

But don't forget to reset the rotation matrix afterwards (setRotationMatrix(new Matrix()); However, you'll have to download the 1.06 preview release (look at the news section for it) to get this working. Versions prior to 1.06 don't affect the animation when calling rotateMesh();

Bonjour,   :wink:

jPCT doesn't handle textures for MD2 files. You have to assign the texture yourself to the loaded object. Usually, MD2s already come with a texture (sometimes in PCX format, which needs to be converted first). After loading the model into an Object3D, you just load the texture and assign it to the loaded object. That's all. If you are making the models yourself, then there are no restrictions on how the texture should be build/look.
To animate models imported from 3DS, you have the same options that apply to all the other formats: You can manipulate the mesh itself, use rotations and translations and build a keyframed mesh animation from the model. In the projects section, there is a thread about technopolis, which discusses some of this aspects at the end of the thread. Maybe that helps to make things clearer.

Nice progress on the 3D/realtime version...i can't wait to see how all this fits together graphical and gameplay wise. And i don't think that your animation system is simpler than jPCT's. It's just different and it has a lot of pros on its side compared to mesh interpolation.
