Will often post NEW demos.

[Jens]

Under Linux you can't currently set a display mode, that's why the demos don't work in fullscreen. I didn't look at your source, but you can use device.isDisplayChangeSupported() to ask if you can set the display mode. If I don't use fullscreen all the demos work.  

[Java Cool Dude]

Fixed

fScreen.setEnabled(GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().                        getDefaultScreenDevice().isFullScreenSupported());

very impressive - works great for me.

Want me to list your demos on the http://xith.org/demo/ site?

Cheers,

Will.

OS X 10.3.1

Trying windowed mode locks up your display manager (see other thread)

Full screen switched the display then locked up...
console message:

Hmmm from now on I shall post the source so that you guys can figure what the f is going on

That would kick ass
/me back making new demos

[Java Cool Dude]

Hey William wasn't it you who wrote a little program to highlight java keywords into a html document?
I might need that to set up the JCD tutorials

[William Denniss]

guilty as charged  http://showsrc.sourceforge.net/

I find it useful caus I can just dump my source into a directory on the server and they are nicely indexed and formatted

[Java Cool Dude]

That's one heck of a tool, man  
Check the first post for the demos' source code

Games published by our own members! Check 'em out!

[William Denniss]

Glad you like it

I've added your demo's to xith.org (linking this thread as your official "library" site (ie where they can get the source and binaries).  

Check out http://xith.org/demo/  If you want to write a small paragraph of text please post it or email it to me and I'll put it up.

Cheers,

Will.

[Java Cool Dude]

Having a f**** hard time trying to make it work with JWS

[shochu]

JavaCoolDude,
   In your particle demo, how come the first wave of particles is always a halo shape and then the settings seem to kick in?

[Java Cool Dude]

Because I only run warmUp() when a presetting is selected such as fire, magma etc...
I figured the basic settings ain't important till you set up one, save it or load it...

[shochu]

WHere exactly is this warmUp() method??  SOrry to be a bother ... I'm just studying your code cause I want to learn how particle systems work hehe. It's really cool by the way.  THanks for making so many great demos available. ~shochu

[Java Cool Dude]

Look into ParticlesManager.
Now that I think about it, I might as well take a good chunck outta that code and replace it by a faster and better stuff

[William Denniss]

nice

The lighting was disabled on purpose since in its current implementation, it doesn't work with JWS.

Is this something specific to your application?  There are a few JWS demos which use lighting.

Will.

[Java Cool Dude]

Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhh
/me pulls hair and runs around making all kind of sounds
All I had to do is add the following line to my .jnlp file to have lighting to work the way it should
<jar href="lib/log4j.jar"/>
Man what a great day to commit suicide

[Java Cool Dude]

First post updated with ClothSimulation demo, check it out.
PS: From now on I shall often modify the first post with new additions
Edit: Regarding the cloth simulation, do you guys want to have a control panel including sliders to control factors such as the wind, gravity, elasticity of the springs, size and mass of the cloth?

[Java Cool Dude]

Modified the update loops a bit in particlesManager and it is now possible to generate the EXACT same effect on all machines regardless of the frame rate.
Also the performance when generating smoke, water and magma has increased by almost 30%.
^_^
Nighty night, I have soooooooooooo many new projects to work on (Flag effect and not the shitty one depending on sin or cos, physics demos, and water rippling) stay tuned
PS: Hey William man can you link my demos on xith.org as well as their sample images straight to the webspace you gave me?
The reason behind this request is that I update my demos frequently and it's a burden to ask you to upload the new changes again and again

[swpalmer]

None of this works on the Mac

[Java Cool Dude]

/me Heman b**** slaps the mac
What error do you get man?
Notice that I put a link to the source next every demo, so you might as well take a look and figure the bug out for us

[swpalmer]

It switches to full screen mode then locks up...  I did manage to dig this out of the console logs:

2003-12-17 00:57:47.356 java[3435] *** +[ThreadUtilities updateModels:]: selector not recognized

Windowed mode fails with:

Error: empty view at "src/native/jogl/MacOSXWindowSystemInterface.m:createContext:24"

[William Denniss]

PS: Hey William man can you link my demos on xith.org as well as their sample images straight to the webspace you gave me?

The jnlp files are linked currently - I'll change it so the images are linked too

And I'll add your new demo.

I like the idea of the control panel

Cheers,

Will.

[Java Cool Dude]

Updated with a new demo

[William Denniss]

http://xith.org/demo/JavaCoolDude.php updated.

Nice demo - doesn't run very fast on this machine but - what frame rates are you seeing?

Cheers,

Will.

[Java Cool Dude]

http://xith.org/demo/JavaCoolDude.php updated.

I can make it run twice as fast, but.... the lighting will look a bit worse...
/me back to coding my next demo

I take it you're not one of us Americans .


Edit: The demo now runs 50% faster

[swpalmer]

Edit: The demo now runs 50% faster

It still fails at the same speed on the Mac    

In windowed mode it always just bails.   In full screen mode I always get an empty white screen.

The odd thing is that other Xith 3D programs work - Martian Madness for instance.
