Hi everyone:

I have a difficult problem to solve.
I have a Shape3D object (with his TextureImage2D and his Geometry). The TextureImage2D is loaded from an image file. I need to get a BufferedImage to each part of the Shape3D object or to each Triangle of the shape. I only can get the BufferedImage from all the image file.
May be some option to get differents images from the original image file using the texture coordinates? I can´t find any way to do that

Thanks

I do not believe there is a way to do what you are asking using the Xith3D API.  You can load the image using AWT methods and split the BufferedImage into rectangles which can each be used to create Textures.  Mapping between rectangular textures and geometry is always a problem, but it is imposed by the graphics card APIs; i.e., graphics cards expect all textures to be rectangular with a coordinate mapping onto geometry.

If the above does not do enough for you, then you will need to load the image into a graphics program and "fix it".

I´m going to try it. Thanks for the answer.
