hey, i rember this tutorial from a while ago, but i had a problem when using it. For some reason during the "WalkDude" application, the purple guy always flies of the screen even if i just tap the forward key.

Is there a way to fix this?

Thanks,

hey, thanks for replying,

Where can I find your code for the physics behavior?

Also, the simplicity of what I think i'm looking for is maybe just an engine that handles collision between circles or spheres. Something like that is what I'm in need of.

So a sphere collides with another and it halts the object from continuing to move in that direction.

If sphere collision is too heft on the computer then maybe rectangle collision is ok.

Great thanks, so does this translation matrice only  set the objects position, or can it be used to as a vector matrice?

Say we have this point:
(100,50)
How do I get the object to move from its origin to the point (100,50) with a speed of about 20 ms-1. If you could show me an example of how this would be done, that would be cool.

Thanks,

Hi,  i'm making a small RPG game and i was wondering how one would go about making a 2D map sort of tile based and then being able to place 3D objects on top of it that move on the map.

Perhaps i'm getting this mixed up....Should I instead create a 3D plane and then create an image with the tiles painted onto it and then set the plane's texture to the image.

Or is there a way to make a 3D terrain and then have 3D objects moving on it while keeping with the elevation if there is a hill or something?

Much help appreciated,
Weastmann

Hi, i'm new to this Java3D stuff, and I was just wondering about something.

So far i can place a rotating colored square into a SimpleUniverse, but my question is how do i set its velocity after I've added it?

Perhaps i don't know enough of Java3D to explain this correctly, so sorry about that

Thanks,
Weastmann
