Yes, we were told many times by different characters that James was a good person, but we never actually saw it. The only scene we *saw* him in, however, is SWM, which was quite shameful, IMO.
Pippin:
What is shameful about the scene where James is entertaining baby Harry? There's no trace of the arrogant bully there. We'll learn from Lily's letter that he was frustrated about being shut up in the house, and yet (unlike Sirius) we don't see him take it out on other people.
