I am trying to follow the instructions to get Java 3D to work on a
Mac. When I get to the part where I need to install the most current
version of Jogl and I click on the hyperlink (https://
jogl.dev.java.net/) I am taken to a page that say Jogl is an inactive
project and there are no longer any files available to download. Is
there a workaround for this?

Thanks

Hi,
Sorry about that, just been having a look into this problem. Looks
like you may not need to do that step at all. If so, I'll remove it
from the web site.
Try double-clicking the Satscape.jar file, it should run just fine,
but now try the 3D view, does it work or does it say "initialising..."
It looks like OpenGL is pre-installed on a mac, the only remaining
files for Java3D are included (packed inside) the Satscape.jar

So, if you could try that and let me know, so I can correct the web
site.

Thanks,
Scott

No problem, thanks for the quick response. I was just about to reply
when I saw your response and state that I tried it anyway and it
worked fine without installing anything. Thanks again and thanks for
the great program.
