Re: Sweet Home 3D 6.0
It is better to be aware of source code changes to files used by a plug-in to ensure compatibility with future versions of Sweet Home 3D.
This may be due to the #IMPLIED value but the videoSpeed attribute is not visible in the Home.xml file when saving as an old file or creating a new video path with the Beta10. By adding the videoSpeed attribute in the Home.xml file with a different value from the default one, the speed of movement is slower or faster and therefore the number of images bigger or smaller which increases or decreases the duration of the rendering for a frame rate of 25.
there is no change in 3D drawing mode , probably due to unauthorized access in Java Web Start.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 6.0
I set videoSpeed attribute to #IMPLIED because the default speed is 2.4 km/h, i.e. 2/3 or the long 0.66666666666666... value. But maybe I could simplify as 0.667...
or a call to System.setProperty (if you want to try with the Beta version, you'll have to build the JAR executable version).

I usually use a version of the available source code to build an executable JAR version from the build.xml. In the README.TXT , it is indicated that we can also download the source code with an SVN command but how to do?

Caution!! I generally make some tests before committing changes, but during development, source code may still contain some major bug fixes.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 6.0
The drawing modes (FILL, OUTLINE, FILL_AND_OUTLINE) are well taken into account for 3D offscreen images (Quality 1 and 2) but not by the Sunflow rendering engine (Quality 3 and 4).

Re: Sweet Home 3D 6.0
Thanks for your tests. I updated the program to ignore the drawing mode in SunFlow and in OBJ export. I also renamed com.eteks.sweethome3d.j3d.ignoreDrawingMode as com.eteks.sweethome3d.j3d.drawingModeEnabled that has to be set to true instead of false.
No idea if I'll go further one day with this drawing mode, handling big designs in OUTLINE mode doesn't even seem to be faster.

Re: Sweet Home 3D 6.0
Hi Emmanuel,
Ubuntu keeps changing things, whether for better or worse, I am not sure.
SH3D-5.7 is offered in the software store: it installs and runs without any problem. However... if you look at the installation, it is very different from the "old" installation, where you only had to unzip the downloaded file. There are 3 hidden eteks/SH directories, and it is not clear which does what. Using trial and error, I found the directory where I have to place plug-ins and libraries.
These days, Ubuntu uses the SNAP packaging system. The good news is that this package should work for all Ubuntu/Mint/Linux versions that support SNAP.
Is it possible to provide v6.0 as a SNAP package for all Ubuntu users? Is it also possible to include the XmX trick, so that we can increase memory? I have searched all hidden directories, but cannot find a script that has this entry.
Of course it would be even better, if you could find a way in which Ubuntu users get back the ease of use that we had before. That way we could also try out the beta versions, which now, sadly, is not possible.
For your info: I have tried every possible way to install SH3D, using either the original script, or the special Java-1.5 script, nothing works. I have tried every tutorial I found on the internet: nothing works. I have tried to run the betas with Oracle Java v5, v6, v7 and v8: nothing works.
Thanks you in advance!
Hans
