The code is already there... in fragments

Hi,

Im a bit of a beginner with jpct-ae.  Im just having a problem with the 3D model that loads up and blocks the camera. Could it be because of the size?  Im trying to integrate it with vuforia. if the model is small i dont have a problem.  The thing is, if it didnt find the image target from vuforia yet, then the 3D model shouldnt show up yet, please correct me if im wrong.

it only becomes a problem if i change the size using mainBody.scale(2);

If im wrong could you help me with the code to remove or delay the 3D object from showing up if it didnt find the image target yet.

THanks so much!

Solved it. but if someone has a better way, please share. Thanks

the innerCab and seats of the car was blocking the camera

Thanks so much.  you've help is greatly appreciated. you're awesome

thanks.

but should i throw my xyz coordinates, say(100, 150, 50) directly to the ballPos in  targetJoint(currentPose, 10, new SimpleVector(-1, 0, 0), ballPos, 0.4f);

what mathematical calculations do i use first?  You used a lot of "Quaternion" math thats currently eluding me right now. 

also would the skeletonhelper class be useful for my case? (again, all the math in there is still unfamiliar to me right now) 

thanks again.

Im a noob and trying to use bones to mimic my movements in kinect.  Is there a way to send my shoulder, arms, and hands to the xy coordinates that im picking up from kinect?   ive been trying all sorts of things and nothings working correctly.
