Sky and transparency

Troubleshooting General Help
1

Hello,



I have a skybox, a model and a transparent box. The problem is i can see the model through the box, but not the sky:







Here is my code:



[java]public void simpleInitApp() {



// Ninja

Spatial ninja = assetManager.loadModel(“Models/Ninja/Ninja.mesh.xml”);

ninja.scale(0.05f, 0.05f, 0.05f);

ninja.rotate(0.0f, -3.0f, 0.0f);

ninja.setLocalTranslation(0.0f, -4.0f, -2.0f);

rootNode.attachChild(ninja);



// Box

Box boxshape = new Box(new Vector3f(0f,3f,0f), 2f,2f,2f);

Spatial myBox = new Geometry(“window frame”, boxshape);

Material mat_tt = new Material(assetManager, “Common/MatDefs/Misc/SimpleTextured.j3md”);

mat_tt.setTexture(“m_ColorMap”, assetManager.loadTexture(“Textures/ColoredTex/Monkey.png”));

mat_tt.getAdditionalRenderState().setBlendMode(BlendMode.Alpha);

myBox.setMaterial(mat_tt);

rootNode.attachChild(myBox);



// Sky

Spatial skyBox = SkyFactory2.createSky(assetManager, “Textures/Sky/Bright/BrightSky.dds”,false);



// Light

DirectionalLight sun = new DirectionalLight();

sun.setDirection(new Vector3f(-0.1f, -0.7f, -1.0f));

rootNode.addLight(sun);



rootNode.attachChild(skyBox);



}[/java]



Thank for your help.

The monkey box has to be in the transparent queue.

[java]

myBox.setQueueBucket(Queue.Transparent);

[/java]
