Hi, has anybody ever tested a universe with sound and more than one Canvas3D? I created an own Universe class which allowes it to display the same scene from different viewing points. That works well untill I add some Sound-Nodes to the scene. When they should start playing sounds, the J3D-Thread

[JAVA3D] Distributing Java3D applications for the Mac

2004-02-18 Thread Jason Cheatham
To distribute our application, I've created an executable jar file that assumes Java3D is installed on the Mac, but I was wondering if it's possible to include the Java3D library files in the install directory, so that Java3D wouldn't have to be installed. Is this possible? Thanks, Jason Cheatha

Java 3D Sound API is so buggy I dropped it and now use the Applet (Java 1.1) sound API instead which is just fine (although not 3D). CHRIS Paul Brown wrote: There is so little information about playing sound in Java3D. I've been through all of the books, the tutorials and even this archive and fo

Hi, I´ve just installed Java3D 1.3-1 with J2SE1.4. When I run the demo applets I just see a black screen. However, the FourByFour applet displays the buttons and the Face1..Face18 panel.

Chris, I've never liked the Applet sound (seems very clumsy). We use javax.sound.midi and javax.sound.sampled, which once you understand how to get them working seem quite reliable. - John Wright Starfire Research Christian Britton wrote: Java 3D Sound API is so buggy I dropped it and now use th

On Windows, you can pack these files into your installer: j3dcore.jar, j3daudio.jar, j3dutils.jar, vecmath.jar J3D.dll, J3DUtils.dll, j3daudio.dll Load the DLL files with System.loadLibrary(), or set java.library.path appropriately. Same on Linux, only with *.so files. I guess that it could be
