Long time I didn’t post about what’s going on with me. Actually as always I’m doing all and nothing. Started a bunch of different projects (one I hope to finish the weekend) and looked a bit in ogre c++ and ogre4j the java-binding.
Just for fun I ported the FacialAnimation-Sample and Terrain-Tutorial(basic tutorial 3) from the ogre-sample to ogre4j. Here is a download-link (you still will have a working installation of ogre4j, what is not done in one second 
).
Whoever thinks I will switch from jME is wrong. But knowing how other engines work will be a great benefit for improving the jMonkeyEngine as well. I just started to make a similar FacialAnimation-Demo for jME2. So stay tuned!!!
Here are some screenshots:
