Hi,

I have the same problem. In a recent update of Java 3D my world was turned upside-down. Now on certain browsers my applet shows the sky above the mountains and on other browsers the ground is up in the air!

This bug introduce in v1.3.1 beta1 is fixed in the next v1.3.1 release.

Is there a recommended version of Java 3D that we should use on the web and how should we handle people who have a different versions?

Also, what is the preferred way of dealing with people who don't have the java 3D plugin installed, currently my applet just says "Applet not inited" which isn't very helpful.

Something like this should work:

try {

// some java 3D stuff

} catch (WhichException e) {

// display a link to which Sun website where they can download the plug-in
}
Does anyone have a working version of this pseudocode with the correct exception name and link address?

Thanks.
