Any log output?

the console now says:

Screen.Java Line 57 is:
buffer.clear(java.awt.Color.BLUE);

yes, buffer is NOT null.

Then everytime I create the Model object, I need to reload the model, rather than just copy it from the already existing model.

okay, I added lwjgl.dll into my games path. Nothing errors now, but the window that comes up is just pitch black.

I added lwjgl.jar and lwjgl_util.jar
now the error I get is:

When I add:
buffer.disableRenderer(IRenderer.RENDERER_SOFTWARE);
buffer.enableRenderer(IRenderer.RENDERER_OPENGL);

just after creafing my FrameBuffer, I get this error:

Which other libraries (becides the jpct.jar) should I include in my buildpath to solve this issue?

the only problem, which I probably should have mentioned, is that I created a new class, called Model. Model extends Object3D. Using the way you just provided wont work, because you can't cast the Object3D class D:

In a project I'm doing, I need to use the .setMesh() method on an Object3D object, and the paremeter passed into the .setMesh() is the mesh (.getMesh()) of another object3D object.
basically:
object2.setMesh(object1.getMesh());

However, when I applied a texture to object2, I found that object2's UV coords are all at 0,0 on the UV map.

Any ideas?

It's in the zip 

...I completely missed the "page 2" of this topic... I'm sorry! XD

[edit]
I love you!

I could really use that example

Quote from: EgonOlsen on December 11, 2011, 11:29:39 PM
Of course you could...sadly, i don't get what you don't get here...!?

A texture has an alpha channel, which defines the transparency IF transparency is actually enabled for an object using this texture OR when blitting this texture. If the texture has no alpha in the file or you don't want to use it, jPCT will calculate one based on the black pixels at load time of that texture.

Perhaps you could supply me with a code example?
For some reason, I just can't grasp what you're saying...

Quote from: EgonOlsen on December 11, 2011, 10:44:53 PM
Transparency is based on objects, not on textures. To make an object transparent, use the mentioned setTransparency(...)-method. The rest of the post was just about using the textures alpha channel or calculate a new one. If you want to make parts of an object transparent while others are not, you have to split into several objects.

So basically, if I wanted to make a billboard gui with say, this texture:


I couldn't?

Quote from: EgonOlsen on December 11, 2011, 10:13:17 PM
No, that doesn't make it transparent...i never said this. What makes it transparent was written in the first sentence of my reply....

To draw a 2D image, have a look at the blit-methods in FrameBuffer and/or at the Overlay-class in the util-package.

I'm still a bit confused, can you reexplain how I cna make a texture support transparencies?

Quote from: EgonOlsen on December 11, 2011, 09:03:52 PM
Sure: new Texture(<yourTexture>, true);

I'm not 100% sure what you mean with "orthographicly projecting an image on to the screen"!?

That doesn't make it transparent... I've tried, but the transparent pixels remain black

By orthographicaly projecting an image, I mean draw an image on to the screen in a 2d space.
Such as a health bar, or other gui's.

Can you provide me with an example on how to use the second thing you mentioned?

Could you also point me in the right direction of orthographicly projecting an image on to the screen? I've tried getting the screens graphics, and then drawing, but it isn't double buffered.
