Hi guys !
I want to generate a simple flat terrain in lwjgl but this code doesn't produce me anything. I am very new in this chapter so if you can explain why this code does nothing please do it! I am generating the terrain with the code shared by ThinMatrix , then i upload the vertices to the buffers and then render them in the main game loop . When i compile it , it shows me a black screen. I have searched for a lot of tutorials but I didn't find anything that can help me .

I see several issues with your code:
Issue Number 1: You are generating a new instance of the man class on every iteration of the loop. Create a single instance of the object outside of the loop and use it in the loop.
Issue Number 2: You are using the old, static pipeline OpenGL. Following ThinMatrix's tutorials, you should be using OpenGL 3 or newer. Everything should be going through shaders, rather than using the GL_PROJECTION_MATRIX and the likes of that.
Your program should look something like the following:
man instance = new man()
while (!glfwWindowShouldClose(window))
{
RENDER THE TERRAIN HERE
glfwPoll
glfwSwapBuffers
glClear
}
If you want some example code, I have a repository here that should help, as I used to watch ThinMatrix tutorials.
EDIT: SOLUTION
The vertex shader code should read:
gl_Position = projection * view * model * position;

My shaders: fragment
#version 330
in vec4 pos;
void main()
{
gl_FragColor = vec4 (pos);
}
vertex:
#version 330
attribute vec3 postion;
uniform mat4 projection;
uniform mat4 view;
uniform mat4 model;
out vec4 pos;
void main()
{
gl_Position = vec4(postion, 1.0) * projection * view * model;
pos = vec4(postion, 1.0) ;
}
I have updated my java code so it renders different colors base on the vertex position.

How to edit vertex shader in JOGL

So im working on a Java/Jogl application that basically just translates the vertices of a triangle. So far I am able to get the triangle to move left to right, but I cant figure out how to edit the vertex shader so that when I click a button, the triangle begins to move up and down instead of left and right.

How do I edit my vertex shader so that when I click on a button the location of the vertices changes and the triangle begins to move up and down instead of left to right?

1) Don't do the update like that
2) Don't use an int array for the OpenGL resources (vao), prefer a direct integer buffer, you can use GLBuffers.newDirectIntBuffer(1); for the vao for example..
3) Don't use an FPSAnimator, use Animator instead
4) Don't inialize a new direct buffer everytime in the display() method (bkgBuffer), do it just once in the variable declaration or in the init(). You should also dispose any direct buffer, since it is not guaranteed that they are gonna be removed by the garbage collector. I have a small class for that here. A better one however is the implementation of Gouessej here.
4) Use a vertex buffer object to declare your vertices attributes (like position)
5) Declare a boolean flag variable update to trigger the update.
button2.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
update = 1;
}
});
public void display(GLAutoDrawable drawable) {
GL4 gl = (GL4) GLContext.getCurrentGL();
if(update) {
update = false;
...
}
}
now you have 2 possibilities:
you update the vertices directly
gl3.glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, bufferName.get(Buffer.VERTEX));
gl3.glBufferSubData(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, 0, vertexBuffer.capacity(), vertexBuffer);
gl3.glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, 0);
and your vertex shader may be something like
#version 430
layout (location = POSITION) in vec2 position;
void main(void)
{
gl_Position = vec4(position, 0, 1);
}
you update only the matrix that is going to multiply the vertices
gl3.glBindBuffer(GL_UNIFORM_BUFFER, bufferName.get(Buffer.TRANSFORM));
gl3.glBufferSubData(GL_UNIFORM_BUFFER, 0, Mat4.SIZE, matBuffer);
gl3.glBindBuffer(GL_UNIFORM_BUFFER, 0);
and in this case the vertex may be
#version 430
layout (location = POSITION) in vec2 position;
layout (binding = TRANSFORM) uniform Transform
{
mat4 mat;
};
void main(void)
{
gl_Position = mat * vec4(position, 0, 1);
}
In case you need further assistance, don't hesitate to ask for help.

I want the green person to stay on the ground but I can't seem to change the physicslocation to appropriate. Do you have any idea? I took this program and just switched the character from oto to ninja:
http://code.google.com/p/jmonkeyengine/source/browse/trunk/engine/src/test/jme3test/bullet/TestWalkingChar.java
Do you have any idea how I can make the camera zoom out so that the whole green person is displayed and change the location of the green person so that he is on the ground?
I've noticed that I can change the location of the main char with this
character.setPhysicsLocation(new Vector3f(-140f, 9.9f, -9f));
but when I put in lower y coordinates the main char drops through the ground and then floats way up in the sky like he ended up on the top of everything when he went through the ground. I could run the example with Oto perfectly, it's changing the main char to ninja that doesn't work for me.
Update
When using setlocaltranslationinstead of setphysicallocationmy main char gets located in the air:
Update 2
After scaling the main char:
model.scale(0.25f);
as suggested in the answer, the rendering is much better:
Update 2
After some more manipulation, it looks more like the way I want:
private void createCharacters() {
CapsuleCollisionShape capsule = new CapsuleCollisionShape(3f, 4f);
character = new CharacterControl(capsule, 0.01f);
model = (Node) assetManager.loadModel("Models/Ninja/Ninja.mesh.xml");
model.setLocalScale(0.15f);
// ninja.setViewDirection( new Vector3f( 1, 0, 1 ) );
// model.rotate(0.0f, -3.0f, 0.0f);
float scale = 0.25f;
model.scale(scale, scale, scale);
model.addControl(character);
character.setPhysicsLocation(new Vector3f(-141f, 10.5f, -9f));
model.setShadowMode(ShadowMode.CastAndReceive);
// model.setLocalTranslation(0, 50, 0);
character.setViewDirection(new Vector3f(1, 0, 0));
rootNode.attachChild(model);
getPhysicsSpace().add(character);
// BlenderKey blenderKey = new BlenderKey(
// "objects/creatures/alien/alien.mesh.xml");
// Node alien = (Node) assetManager.loadModel(blenderKey);
// alien.setLocalTranslation(new Vector3f(-145, 21, -10));
// rootNode.attachChild(alien);
BlenderKey blenderKey2 = new BlenderKey("Models/Oto/Oto.mesh.xml");
Spatial man = (Spatial) assetManager.loadModel(blenderKey2);
man.setLocalTranslation(new Vector3f(-140, 10, -10));
// man.setShadowMode(ShadowMode.CastAndReceive);
rootNode.attachChild(man);
}

I suspect there are 3 things that could make your character appear to be hovering:
Your character is hovering. In this case you'd want to use character.setLocalTranslation(0, -20, 0) to adjust where your character is located (may have to adjust the -20 to some other negative number)
Your character's scale is too big compared to the ground's scale (it sounds like this is a problem you want to fix anyways). To fix this, you'd want to use character.scale(.25) (where the .25 can be adjusted to whatever number works for you
You don't have shadows on the ground. This really links your character to the ground and gives the feeling that they're connected in some way. For this, you'll probably want to use object.setShadowMode(RenderQueue.ShadowMode.Receive) for all your terrain objects, and character.setShadowMode(RenderQueue.ShadowMode.CastAndReceive) on your character object.
The JMonkeyEngine javadoc's are pretty good - If you haven't already I would suggest looking there to help figure out what you're capable of doing with your engine. http://jmonkeyengine.org/javadoc/index.html

Why is my character either hovering or falling through the floor?

I'm making a simple 3D scene with a character and a floor but the character is hovering, or falling through the scene if I put the y coordinate to a negative.
private void createCharacters() {
CapsuleCollisionShape capsule = new CapsuleCollisionShape(3f, 4f);
character = new CharacterControl(capsule, 0.01f);
model = (Node) assetManager.loadModel("Models/Ninja/Ninja.mesh.xml");
float scale = 0.25f;
model.scale(0.05f, 0.05f, 0.05f);
model.addControl(character);
character.setPhysicsLocation(new Vector3f(0, -0.15f, 0));
model.setShadowMode(ShadowMode.CastAndReceive);
character.setViewDirection(new Vector3f(1, 0, 0));
rootNode.attachChild(model);
getPhysicsSpace().add(character);
}
The above code makes the character fall through the scene. Changing it just a little bit to this makes the character hover:
character.setPhysicsLocation(new Vector3f(0, -0.09f, 0));
If you want to inspect all of the code it's here

It appears this is due to this line of code:
CapsuleCollisionShape capsule = new CapsuleCollisionShape(3f, 4f);
and then you are scaling down the model. I dont know what the values passed in are, but i suppose one is a radius and the other one is a height, try moving down that 3f and that 4f to something lower, like 1.0f and 2.0f.
It seems the collision detection is pushing your character upwards because its collision shape is a capsule, which is of a different size than the model, and the model is placed in the middle of the capsule.

How to make my character walk properly?

I'm making a small 3D scene and the character can walk by pressing the WASD buttons but the animations that are playing are not correct and the character turns around so it looks like he is moonwalking when moving.
The control code for the buttons are
private void setupKeys() {
inputManager.addMapping("wireframe", new KeyTrigger(KeyInput.KEY_T));
inputManager.addListener(this, "wireframe");
inputManager.addMapping("CharLeft", new KeyTrigger(KeyInput.KEY_A));
inputManager.addMapping("CharRight", new KeyTrigger(KeyInput.KEY_D));
inputManager.addMapping("CharUp", new KeyTrigger(KeyInput.KEY_W));
inputManager.addMapping("CharDown", new KeyTrigger(KeyInput.KEY_S));
inputManager.addMapping("CharSpace",
new KeyTrigger(KeyInput.KEY_RETURN));
inputManager
.addMapping("CharShoot", new KeyTrigger(KeyInput.KEY_SPACE));
inputManager.addListener(this, "CharLeft");
inputManager.addListener(this, "CharRight");
inputManager.addListener(this, "CharUp");
inputManager.addListener(this, "CharDown");
inputManager.addListener(this, "CharSpace");
inputManager.addListener(this, "CharShoot");
}
And the update loop looks like this
public void simpleUpdate(float tpf) {
Vector3f camDir = cam.getDirection().clone().multLocal(0.1f);
Vector3f camLeft = cam.getLeft().clone().multLocal(0.1f);
camDir.y = 0;
camLeft.y = 0;
walkDirection.set(0, 0, 0);
if (left) {
walkDirection.addLocal(camLeft);
}
if (right) {
walkDirection.addLocal(camLeft.negate());
}
if (up) {
walkDirection.addLocal(camDir);
}
if (down) {
walkDirection.addLocal(camDir.negate());
}
if (!character.onGround()) {
airTime = airTime + tpf;
} else {
airTime = 0;
}
if (walkDirection.length() == 0) {
if (!"Idle1".equals(animationChannel.getAnimationName())) {
animationChannel.setAnim("Idle1", 1f);
}
} else {
character.setViewDirection(walkDirection);
if (airTime > .3f) {
if (!"stand".equals(animationChannel.getAnimationName())) {
animationChannel.setAnim("stand");
}
} else if (!"Walk".equals(animationChannel.getAnimationName())) {
animationChannel.setAnim("Walk", 0.7f);
}
}
character.setWalkDirection(walkDirection);
}
I don't understand what is wrong since it is actually so close to working, all I need is that the character doesn't turns around and plays the correct animation when walking. Do you have any idea what the problem might be?

Update
I changed one line of code to include the transform I had to do at the beginning:
character.setViewDirection(walkDirection.add(new Vector3f(1, 0, 0)));
i.e. I added the Vector3f(1, 0, 0) and that seems to have helped, now my character can move forward and backward seemingly perfectly.
But it is still not perfect when moving sideways although the "moonwalking" disappeared and maybe you can confirm that I did the right thing using the add method of the vector?
Update 2
When changing the vector to negate the Ninja is starting to move like he should!
character.setViewDirection(walkDirection.negate());
e.g. in the update code
public void simpleUpdate(float tpf) {
Vector3f camDir = cam.getDirection().clone().multLocal(0.1f);
Vector3f camLeft = cam.getLeft().clone().multLocal(0.1f);
camDir.y = 0;
camLeft.y = 0;
walkDirection.set(0, 0, 0);
if (left) {
walkDirection.addLocal(camLeft);
}
if (right) {
walkDirection.addLocal(camLeft.negate());
}
if (up) {
walkDirection.addLocal(camDir);
}
if (down) {
walkDirection.addLocal(camDir.negate());
}
if (!character.onGround()) {
airTime = airTime + tpf;
} else {
airTime = 0;
}
if (walkDirection.length() == 0) {
if (!"Idle1".equals(animationChannel.getAnimationName())) {
animationChannel.setAnim("Idle1", 1f);
}
} else {
System.out.println("setting walk direction " + walkDirection);
character.setViewDirection(walkDirection.negate());
if (airTime > .3f) {
if (!"stand".equals(animationChannel.getAnimationName())) {
animationChannel.setAnim("stand");
}
} else if (!"Walk".equals(animationChannel.getAnimationName())) {
System.out.println("in walk Walk ");
animationChannel.setAnim("Walk", 0.7f);
}
}
character.setWalkDirection(walkDirection);
}
Now a remaining problem is to make the char jump and move over stairs.

I'm no animation expert but if you move forward while playing the walk animation it should look ok. For better results you might need some transitions between antimations (e.g. stand, walk, turn) which can either be separate animations or maybe could be achieved by using animation blending.
Nevertheless, it's hard to unterstand what actually is your problem, since the description is quite short and we can't see animation problems from looking at a bunch of code.
Besides that, if your problem is how to correctly configure JMonkeyEngine you might be better off in their forum. Or at https://gamedev.stackexchange.com/.
