All demos have some things in common (except for the Swing Demo)

In the bottom right corner the current frames per second get displayed.

Capture Demo

The capture demo shows how the features of Blackspirit Graphics can be used to capture the current scene as an image. The content of the canvas gets copied to an images cache and read out to the images buffer. Then it gets converted to a BufferedImage using the AWTUtil and saved with AWTs ImageIO.

Demo

Swing Demo

The Swing demo shows the integration of Blackspirit Graphics into a Swing application. A Swing frame with a little menu gets created that contains an AWTCanvas and some images get drawn.

Opening the menu shows the proper lightweight integration into Swing as the menu overlaps the AWTCanvas.

The event based rendering shows when changing the camera position by moving the mouse while holding the left mouse button pressed.

Particle Demo

The particle demo shows a fire and a spring effect created with a configurable particle system.
This demonstrates the performance of Blackspirit Graphics and preview of the particle system to be added in the future.

The particle system seen in this demo is ment only for demonstration purposes and not yet included in the Blackspirit Graphics distribution.

Demo

Video Demo

The video demo shows the Java Media Framework (JMF) in action together with FOBS4JMF which provides the native codecs. Video data is read from JMF and drawn using Blackspirit Graphics in fullscreen mode.
When starting the application a dialog will appear to choose a movie.

The updated version of this demo solves the JMF Webstart issues and is now also available as a Webstart demo. For the solution of the JMF Webstart issues see JMFInitializer.java which helps loading the jmf.properties configuration file.

So you don't have to search for movies yourself here are three examples:

• Final Fantasy Trailer (320x172, 8 MB)
• Ironman Trailer (640x272, 14 MB)
• Matrix Reloaded Trailer (576x304, 30 MB)

The VideoRenderer is meant only for demonstration purposes and not yet included in the Blackspirit Graphics distribution.

Debug Demos

The demos listed here are the same as the demos above but with tracing and OpenGL debugging turned on.
If the demos above fail these help to provide information for a bug report.

To get the information printed, logging for webstart applications must be turned on. You can turn logging for webstarts on in Windows as follows:

• Start->Settings->Control Panel->Java->Advanced->Settings->Debugging->Enable tracing and logging

Log files on Windows should be created in the following folder:

• "Drive":\Documents and Settings\"username"\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\log
