Re: Null Pointer Exception from Linux Debian version Updated from this post: 1. Purge ALL the repository installed packages related to SH3D (that means including the configuration files); 2. Manually delete or rename the hidden [HOME].eteks folder; 3. Download the latest 7.5 version from sourceforge . Extract the SweetHome3D-7.5-linux-x64.tgz somewhere in your user space, NOT in wide system. 4. Run using the SweetHome3D-Java3D-1_5_2 script If you are going to use the Plugin Manager plugin: Sweet Home 3D comes with its own Java runtime but that version causes a problem with the Plugin Manager. Download a newer version and replace the runtime directory with the newer files. I use 1.8.0_471 and that works perfectly fine. (Before that you can try editing the startup script and let it point to your installed Java runtime instead of the runtime that comes with Sweet Home 3D.) You can check which Java version Sweet Home 3D is using here: [Menu] > Help > About. You already use X11 instead of Wayland so that is good. Never use flatpak or similar versions, they can't be trusted to work as desired. Make sure you have updated your graphics driver to the latest version. If the problem persists then try the same install with a different Desktop environment. There are very few problems running Sweet Home 3D on Linux, but when there is a problem its often under KDE or using Wayland. You already have a working version under XFCE, I use MATE and don't have any problems. ---------------------------------------- Dodecagon.nl 1300+ 3D models, manuals, and projects |
