Sweet Home 3D 3.0

[Puybaret]

timcurran, maybe you have a problem with your installed version of Java.
Sweet Home 3D version 2.6 could work independently if you install it from its installer since the installer provides an internal dump of Java.
On what system do you work?

Puybaret, I have the same error as timcurran. After install or when try to run installed aplication I get error (see image). My friend has also the same problem.

System: Windows XP x86

Thank you for this log. I fixed this bug yesterday but didn't realize it could prevent the program from running for users who never tried the beta.
I just released the beta 17 that contains the fix of this bug and other minor ones. It contains also updated Czech and Polish versions. [:)]

[Puybaret]

By the way, chipmaster, kudos for your desktop layout !!! [:))]

Emmanuel,

Is it correct that the beta 17 is called beta 16 in the About window?

Hans

[chipmaster]

Thank you Puybaret! How can I associate sh3d extension with beta on windows?
Hansmex, I see Beta 17 in the About window.

[hansmex]

Emmanuel, Chipmaster,

My version NOW says beta 17 also, but I had to delete the old icon and download it again, even though the beta 16 on starting did a big download.

Hans

[timcurran]

Yep, that was the problem. Beta 17 works for me.

Thanks, Emmanuel.

When floor(ceiling) texture/color and ground(sky) texture/color are different and door_elevation=0 (or door_elevation+door_height=wall_height) then doorstep (upper doorstep) has ground (sky) texture/color as in picture



If I increase door_elevation (or wall_height for upper doorstep) by 1 millimeter then picture is fine.

Emmanuel, maybe it's better to have 1 millimeter elevation as default for all doors/openings?

[hansmex]

Chipmaster,

Most probably this "problem" is not a problem.

Try this, and do it exactly in this order:
- draw you walls
- insert your doors
- draw your floor

If you do things in this order, the door makes a hole in the wall, and the floor fills half that hole.
If you first draw the floor, and then insert the doors, the floor isn't adapted to the inserted door, and the ground colour or texture is visible.
