Removing Old Java3D version from Mac OS X
OS X ships with an old version of Java3D within the Java VM that does not support some of the features required for Project Wonderland. Unfortunately as the old Java 3D is actually included in the VM shipped by Apple the only way to use a newer version included in Project Wonderland is to move the old Apple version out of the way. This only needs to be done the first time you run Wonderland.
There are 2 ways to do this, either use our AppleScript to move the files, or use move them by hand. Both are documented below, you only need to choose one method
Using the AppleScript script
Click on this link Java3DRemover and select Open in 'Script Editor.app'
The following window will open once the file is downloaded
Press the Run button and the script will ask for confirmation, then it will ask for your admin password. Once you enter the password it will move the Java3D files out of the VM.
Removing Java 3D by hand
Open a Terminal: Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal, and then enter the following commands:
-
cd /System/Library/Java/Extensions
-
sudo mkdir j3d-old
-
sudo mv j3d* libJ3D* vecmath.jar j3d-old
