Hello everybody!

First of all, thanks for what you have been doing and I hope I can give something back to the community.

I just retrieved all the sources for Xith3D and Xith-TK from SVN and I noticed that some of the demos in xith-tk reference classes in the org.xith3d.physics.joode.* package. Apparently this package is missing in what I retrieved from the repository (and I cannot find it when browsing the sources via the web interface).

Do I need to retrieve some other package?

Other question (I know, I know, I should probably do a forum search before asking, but I just grabbed the opportunity of this post to ask  ): does Xith3D support deformable terrain?

Thanks in advance

Ok, I just found out the response to my question: apparently the xith-tk project (at least the NetBeans version) doesn't reference the xpal-joode.jar.

PS
this is the correct fragment of project.xml (in the nbproject directory):

Code:

        <java-data xmlns="http://www.netbeans.org/ns/freeform-project-java/2">
            <compilation-unit>
                <package-root>src</package-root>
                <classpath mode="compile">../xith3d/third-party/jogl/jogl.jar;../xith3d/third-party/lwjgl/lwjgl.jar;../xith3d/third-party/misc/log4j.jar;../xith3d/third-party/misc/vorbis.jar;../xith3d/third-party/math/openmali.jar;../xith3d/third-party/particles/jops.jar;../xith3d/third-party/xml/jibx/jibx-run.jar;../xith3d/third-party/jagatoo.jar;../xith3d/third-party/hial/hial.jar;../xith3d/third-party/xml/xstream/xstream-1.2.1.jar;../xith3d/third-party/joal/joal.jar;../xith3d/third-party/sound/vorbis.jar;../xith3d/third-party/swt/windows/swt.jar;../xith3d/src;../xith3d/third-party/physics/joode.jar;../xith3d/third-party/physics/xpal-joode.jar</classpath>
                <built-to>bin</built-to>
                <source-level>1.5</source-level>
            </compilation-unit>
            <compilation-unit>
                <package-root>test-resources</package-root>
                <source-level>1.5</source-level>
            </compilation-unit>
        </java-data>

This must replace the corresponding <java-data...> ... </java-data> at the end of the file.

hi, Massimiliano. Welcome to Xith3D .

I just fixed the nbproject path (well, without using Netbeans). Actually the two jars from the misc folder are obsolete now and can be removed. Doesn't Netbeans complain about that? I will commit the changes later. You seem to have it running, don't you?

Deformable Terrain? Don't know. Mathias is working on a new Terrain implementation. I don't know, if he already came to that point. Let's wait for his statement.

I set sith up as a "freeform" project with existing ant script, so netbeans just references the ant build-file and the jars in the project config are only used for code completion. A "real" netbeans project detects missing jars and such.

Deformable Terrain? Don't know. Mathias is working on a new Terrain implementation. I don't know, if he already came to that point. Let's wait for his statement.

You should be able to change the terrain data on runtime, but the used strategy is not best suited for terrain deformation, because it needs precomputation of the LOD levels and the complete subgrid has to be re-uploaded to the gfx card on a change.

Well, actually yes and no... For a long series of reason (most work related), I'm running my dev machine under Vista Ultimate 64bit, and it's a pain in the proverbial {insert what you want here} because the 64 bit version of the jdk can't access 32 bit libraries and the 32 bit is slower...

But I'm slowly recompiling all the missing libraries (lwjgl, ecc) in 64 bit format.
