Texture import files not opening
Hello,

I have just downloaded Sweet Home 3D and I have imported the model zip files successfully and I can access everything through the library. I am following the same steps to import the texture zip files, but it's not working. I have closed and reopened the SH3D app and it's still the same 26 default textures. When I go into my computer files and open the zip files for the textures and look at the properties, it says it's an Adobe Acrobat document, but it also says the file name is a .sh3t doc. I have deleted the files and re-downloaded them, but it's all still the same. These are the texture zip files I'm trying to import: http://www.sweethome3d.com/importTextures.jsp
What can I try next?

Thank you so much!
Debra

Re: Texture import files not opening
Texture library files have the extension SH3T and can be imported as a whole. The files from the Textures page have to be unzipped before trying to open them.
If necessary you can make your own SH3T files using the Textures Library Editor.

Re: Texture import files not opening
I have exactly the same problem. Also cannot open the Textures library editor (downloaded but unable to open .jar file)
was there ever a solution found for this problem?
I have previously had no trouble importing the textures but now unable to open the files. The sh3t files seem to be unrecognised??

Re: Texture import files not opening
The Textures library editor requires Java. Did you install it?
