Hello boys.
Wow, I had never seen Sunflow before…very impressive.
yeah that's a very cool renderer/raytracer in java…i actually managed to tweak it into doing stuff in realtime, and that was long ago so they have improved alot i think…
Could you "trick" it into rendering stuff realtime into jME? 
To go back on topic (not to say I don't want Sunflow support for jME one way or another }:-@), I think what you might want is an exporter from jME to some other format (that you can later import into Sunflow for example).
I am not aware of anything like this in jME, but it should not be hard at all to build it, given you know the target format.
Very impressive indeed, I wish to have a "sceneshot" feature (Sunflow export) and then render it to screenshots
Yes, Sunflow is impressive.
This is my object with Sunflow rendering:

the lighting in these videos are rendered with sunflow in realtime, in jme…
(i made a jme->sunflow for lightmap generation for work half a year ago, so i'm not sure it's shareable unfortunately)

Can you tell a bit more about this? Did you render the visible objects with sunflow to a low-res color texture, and applyed that texture to the screen? My guess is that would not be enough, since objects ourside the frustum would not affect the lighting in the scene. How did you select object to render with sunflow, or did you render the whole scene with sunflow? If that is the case, then this solution may not suitable for larger scenes.
