Java 3D Games

I keep hearing great things about JAMID, Java Grand Prix, and others.

Are There any projects that are of a good quality, not applets, that are open source so I can learn from them ?

I would eventually like to write a 3d engine in java using gl4java or java3d. Any pointers on that also ?

Thanks.

Jay

Well I've never made it run- it won't install at all on my PC for some reason, but apparently the J3Dfly demo, http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/3D/flythrough.html (version 2 in beta at http://java3d.netbeans.org/j3dfly_intro.html ) is a good starting point and I believe the code to that is open-source.

While it is not a complete game yet, XMUD http://sourceforge.net/projects/xmud is an intresting project. Which shows off j3D quite nicly.

Breakfast- thanks for pointing out j3dfly.I had downloaded Java 3D from http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/3D/and did not notice the "fly" link right under it.

To get j3dfly to run,* rename "j3dfly-1_0-win.exe" to "j3dfly-1_0-win.zip".* unzip using WinZip or whatever.* look in the resulting folder for a "J3dfly" folder,and inside that folder look for "j3dfly.bat".* double-click on "j3dfly.bat".
