Code Review
This pull request migrates numerous examples and test cases from the deprecated Ogre model format to glTF and officially marks the Ogre loader classes as deprecated. Feedback indicates that several updated examples (such as TestLightScattering, TestSSAO2, and the stress tests) use fragile manual child access and explicit casts to Geometry that will likely result in ClassCastException due to the structural differences in glTF models. Furthermore, the Ninja.gltf asset is missing from the contribution, and certain models like Oto and Sinbad were overlooked in the conversion process.

Thanks! Can you look into the problems reported by gemini and make sure every modified example is rendered properly? |
|
Yh sure would do that now |
Fixed casting isues in class that still used older structure of ogre models as opposed to newer GLTF geometry
|
alright i have resolved all gemini problems, removed all unused ogre files and confirmed that the examples are rendered properly |
|
@gemini-code-assist do another review |

Code Review
This pull request migrates jMonkeyEngine examples from the deprecated Ogre XML format to glTF and marks Ogre asset loaders as deprecated. Feedback indicates that the new glTF node hierarchy will cause ClassCastExceptions in TestLodStress and TestHoverTank where Geometry casts are performed on child nodes. Furthermore, replacing the Sinbad character with a sword in TestTextureAtlas reduces test coverage, and the findFirstGeometry helper method should be moved to a common utility to avoid duplication across test files.

Switching to the glTF format for the teapot model will cause a ClassCastException on line 60. The glTF loader introduces a wrapper node hierarchy, meaning teapotNode.getChild(0) will return a Node instead of a Geometry. This test should be updated to use a recursive search for the geometry, similar to the findFirstGeometry() helper method implemented in TestSSAO2.java or TestBatchLod.java.

Switching to the glTF format for the tank model will cause a ClassCastException on line 69: Geometry tankGeom = (Geometry) tank.getChild(0);. Due to the glTF loader's node structure, tank.getChild(0) is now a Node. You should update line 69 to correctly locate the geometry within the new hierarchy, perhaps by using a recursive search.

Replacing the Sinbad character model with just his sword significantly reduces the complexity of this texture atlas test. If the full Sinbad character model is not available in glTF, consider using another character model (like Elephant.gltf or Ninja.gltf) to maintain the test's original intent of batching multiple complex models with distinct textures.

This helper method is duplicated in TestBatchLod.java. Consider moving it to a common utility class to improve maintainability. Additionally, the fully qualified class name com.jme3.scene.Spatial is redundant here as Spatial is already imported.
Sorry, but how can you confirm that, when in some examples the model was changed entirely instead of being properly ported? For example, Oto was replaced with Elephant. And some others just break because the converted glTF has a different scene graph, while the code still assumes the old one. This bounty is Anyone can run a batch conversion with Copilot. What is needed here is actual human testing. |

I'd have a look, cause I viewed them using Blender and running the engine to confirm they did render properly albeit not all models, I'd cross-check and fix any problems and commit, sorry |

@riccardobl want to confirm one last thing before push, cause i am using blender to export and import each mesh, when exporting the ogre mesh there are no textures needed to confirm if thats okay or if i should include their textures i would also love to know, during conversion from ogre file to gltf i noticed that LOD data in for example the Teapot and SignTracker got lost, i wanted to inquire if i should create a new LOD Data, modify the LOD code to check if LOD Levels is greater than zero before creating LOD group or maintain ogre files for LOD testing in examples like TestBatchLOD, please if you could answer urgently would be nice |
