Re: Sweet Home 3D 6.0

Under Windows 10 64 bit, the 32 bit option is selected by default in the hope it will solve the problems of people who can't run Sweet Home 3D. So, pay attention to this option if you want to run Sweet Home 3D 64 bit under Windows 10.

Under my Windows 10 64 bit, Sweet Home 3D version 6.0 (x64) is installed directly in the directory "C:\Program Files (x86)" without possibility to choose the architecture if Sweet Home 3D version 5.7 (x64) is already present in the "C:\Program Files" or "C:\Program Files (x86)" directory.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 6.0

Tonight, the Beta 11

If there is an old version, there will be no 32BIT/64BIT option.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 6.0
Thanks for your tests. I updated Windows installer to always display the installation folder screen with an additional option to uninstall the previously installed version.
Download it from SweetHome3D-6.0.beta12-windows.exe (51 MB)

Re: Sweet Home 3D 6.0

SweetHome3D-6.0.beta12-windows.exe ]

I think of an important thing
In the software setup interface or software installation interface, add a memory size setting option.
just like SweetHome3D.l4j.ini

The default use of 0.9G in software 32 is very small, and the 64 bit 4G is too small.Slightly more complicated rendering requires 10G's memory usage.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 6.0
Great!
I love this version.

Just one question: Is max mem 14.2 Gb?

Maybe in a future version...

The default use of 0.9G in software 32 is very small, and the 64 bit 4G is too small.

In 32 bit, a higher value won't work. In 64 bit, the default max is half of the available RAM.

Is max mem 14.2 Gb?

When run in 64 bit, the working limit must be the RAM size available on your computer when Sweet Home 3D runs.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 6.0
To all <?> Ubuntu users who have problems running the beta version.

Thanks to the help of UbuntuBirdy I now can try the beta version 6. Here are the program lines you need:

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Name=Sweet Home 3D BETA 611
GenericName=Interior 2D design application with 3D preview
Generic Name[de]=Innenraumplaner
Comment=Interior design Java application for quickly choosing and placing furniture on a house 2D plan drawn by the end-user with a 3D preview
Comment[de]=Innenraumplaner zum Auswählen und Platzieren von Möbeln auf einem 2D-Hausplan mit 3D-Vorschau
Path=/home/hans/SweetHome3D-beta611
Exec=sh -c "/home/hans/SweetHome3D-beta611/SweetHome3D-Java3D-1_5_2" %U
Icon=/home/hans/SweetHome3D-beta611/SweetHome3DIcon.png
StartupNotify=true
StartupWMClass=com-eteks-sweethome3d-SweetHome3D
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=2DGraphics;3DGraphics;
Keywords=interior;design;2D;3D;home;house;furniture;java;
MimeType=application/sweethome3d;
Name[de_CH]=SweetHome3D BETA 611

Note the following:
- you can change the Name and GenericName to whatever you like
- you can leave out the Comment lines
- you can change [de] and [de-CH] to your own language
- in the path names change "hans" to your own user name
- make sure that the path name /SweetHome3D-beta611/ points correctly to your file (name and location)
- open a Text Editor and copy the above text
- save and name the file xxx.desktop where xxx is the name you want
- then copy the script to /home/hans/.local/share/applications/
- this is a hidden file, so you need to do CTRL-H to show the file

- under the start button, type SW and SH3D should show up

Thank you very much Birdy!!!

Re: Sweet Home 3D 6.0
So many new great features - oh, Emmanuel, please don't stop tongue

Due to "3d error" I had to install 6.0 beta 11 with "j3d.version=1.5.2" (Win 7, 32bit) and now it works nice.

Thank you very much Birdy!!!

Glad I could help you, Hans.

There are two great programming highlights since time immemorial: once Linux and of course SweetHome3D!
The result is a law of the universe: who's able to use SweetHome3D on a Linux-System, will be happy!
And of course I will try to make as many people happy as possible by showing them how to use SweetHome3D on Linux.
