Hello I am trying to make a multiplayer game, so I made a class called "Escenario", that have static fields and methods so they can be accesed from anywhere without declaring objects, The problem is that the render that I know how to do, renders the world throught an asigned camera, but I need to render what an specific and not asigned camera is viewing, for example: the examples that came with the api reference the camera to the asigned camera
Camera C=theWorld.getCamera ();

and C is the asigned camera, but if I want to use another camera I can do:

Camera C=new Camera ();
theWorld.setCameraTo (C);

and C is the asigned camera here.

But the camera to render must be always the camera asigned to World. My question is:

Is there any way to render to diferent cameras at the same time, because when I run my applet in my browser, it renders in both web pages the same camera. I dont know if my problem is being understood.

I nned to know how to render the content of a camera without asigning it as the World default camera.

Is there any way of adding something like a crooshair to the camera, I think that I could link an Object3D to the camera, but I am looking for something like a texture placed on the camera, so I won need to move both objects.

Happy new year for everybody!!!

Hello, I was reviewing the demos I downloaded, but I am afraid I cant understand them at all nor how the collision detection is made, I am making a first person game, so I am moving the camera, I tried but the all what I could do was detecting just the 5% of the walls, I need an easy and simple example of detecting a collision using the camera, please.

I set the collision mode to collide with others and with it self on the level once it was all merged, and I used check camera collision when moving the camera. I dont know, Why only works with specific walls, and only a few times?

I someone can help me with any piece of code, please do it.

I am doing an awt applet.

Thanks.

Hello again, now I have reviewed the examples that I downloaded but I really cant see clearly how to begin mi program, when I tried the 3D state engine for visual C++, it was a little bit more clear. I just need some information to begin doing my own games, I have reviewed the documentation but I didnt found nothing helpfull, maybe I am not understanding well becausse I dont speak English very well., I would like some small examples, like loading a map; after that loading the map and moving the camera noting else, or any other small example in wich I can learn how to use this engine., thanks.

I tried to load the ql.3ds map, but I couldnt, thats what I did:

public class test {

   
    public test() {
    }

        public static void main (String args[]) {

        World  theWorld=new World ();
        Object3D [] level=Loader.load3DS ("ql.3ds", 5f);
        for (int i=0; i<level.length; i++) {
        Object3D part=level;

         theWorld.addObject(part);
      }
        theWorld.buildAllObjects();
    }
}

a message appear in the console

Loading file ql.3ds
[ Mon Dec 06 20:45:35 GMT-05:00 2004 ] - ERROR: Couldn't read file ql.3ds
[ Mon Dec 06 20:45:35 GMT-05:00 2004 ] - ERROR: Not a valid 3DS file!

Now I am a kind of lost, very confused.

I use Forte 3.0 e.e.

Sorry for my language skills, I speak Spanish and just a few English.

ok: here is my problem:

I am very interested on making video games. Now I am a novat, I enjoy doing 3D models using 3D studio max and others, I know how to use C++ and java, so I am not an expert but  I learn quickly. I have more skills using java tecnologies so I decided to try jPCT as Engine, I tried before an engine from "3D state", but I was disapointed for the graphics capabilities.

now:

I would like help with a list of commands that uses this engine with a little explanation in Spanish of each one if possible, and another explanation on how to implement java application using this engine.
I know that nobody will send me a 100% complete list of all the commands, objects, classes, etc. but. the most usefulls please.

Thanks a lot.
