[SOLVED] Show the outline of a cube

Troubleshooting

Hello,

I wish to show the outline of a cube. When I create a box and set it to show its wireframe it looks like this:

But I want it to look like this:

What is the best way to achieving this effect?

Use a WireBox mesh.

Create a material and assign a cube.

matWire = new Material(assetManager, "Common/MatDefs/Misc/Unshaded.j3md");
matWire.getAdditionalRenderState().setWireframe(true);

@AdiDOS That’s literally what he already did I believe.

He looks like that, but it’s not what he wants.

Correctly:

WireBox b = new WireBox (1, 1, 1);
Geometry geom = new Geometry("Box", b);  
Material matWire = new Material(assetManager, "Common/MatDefs/Misc/Unshaded.j3md");
geom.setMaterial(matWire);                  
rootNode.attachChild(geom);

Yes, but WireBox WILL do what he wants… as MoffKalast already said.

Thank you. WireBox was what I was looking for.

btw there’s wiresphere as well, great. And I was using setMode(Mesh.Mode.Points) along with setLineWidth (which I believe is deprecated in 3.1), lol
