xith3d question

[wakeboardin]

I was reading off the xith3d site and it says you can access fuctions directly from underlaying api's(jogl).  Does this mean I can use the Cg off of the jogl even if it's not in xith3d javadoc's?

Do a search of the forum, I believe there may be some good info on this.

From memory:  Unfortunately Xith3D doesn't have a supported way to access the underlying renderer.  However, you can create your own shaders, etc (essentially exensions to the rendering engine) to do what you want.  That option isn't perfect as you are modifying the Xith3D source, and you end up with essentially a customised version of Xith3D, but it should work.

Cheers,

Will.
