Hi, there,

After I installed JDK 1.4.1 and Java 3D 1.3 (OpenGL version) on my
Windows 2000 Professional IBM ThinkPad, I can run all the programs and
see all the objects in the demo directory {jdk home}\demo\java3d. Then
I uninstalled Java 3D (OpenGL version), and reinstalled Java 3D 1.3
(DirectX version). After that, I can only see those demo programs that
don't use any texture mappings (like HelloUniverse). For those
programs that use texture mappings (like TextureImage and
TextureByReference), I can only see a black window and those objects
just disappeared now.

My machine has DirectX 8.0 installed. Does this mean Java 3D 1.3 have
a compatible problem with DirectX 8.0?

It should works with DirectX 8.0 and above (DirectX 9.0 just release and
works also)

Most likely it is either a driver's problem or you are using 24 bit
display mode which DirectX 8.0 API
is not preferred. You may be able to get some error message why texture
fail to load use

java -Dj3d.debug=true yourApp

Please update your driver and use 16/32 bit display mode.

Any suggestions from you are appreciated. Thanks in advance.
