Re: Sweet Home 3D 5.5
The version 5.5 beta 13 (Java Web Start, Windows installer, macOS installer and Linux 64 installer) comes with updated translations and a more complete management of content creators. It's now possible to enter the creator of imported furniture and texture images in the wizards, and the Creator column displays the creator of a 3D model + the creators of textures applied to the object.

The Java 3D version and architecture used by the Windows installer can be also modified with the following additional parameters:
/os.arch=x86 will force the installation of the 32 bit version of Sweet Home 3D under Windows 64 bit
/j3d.version=1.5.2 will force the installation of Java 3D 1.5.2
/j3d.version=1.6 will force the installation of Java 3D 1.6.
As Java 3D 1.6 seemed to cause some problems for some users under Windows 7 and older versions, I also modified the behavior of the installer in such a way that Java 3D 1.5.2 will be installed by default under Windows XP, Vista and 7.
To use these options, simply execute the installer in a cmd window followed by the options of your choice separated by spaces.
I should release Sweet Home 3D 5.5 in the coming days. Just wait for some feedback from users to be sure that the new options and Java 8u144 work correctly for them.
