    It's a fair program.
    About Java, what do you have against it ?
    I'ts a nice language.
    If you want to see a beautiful interface, take a look at JSoko.
    Regards.

    Sweet!

    And there's no point arguing about Java, anymore. Sure it's a technology who's day never came; yes it's pretty slow; the Java plugin is a major cause of browser crashes, etc. etc.

    But this app works extremely well and it's free.

    What's there to complain about?

    Sorry bopb99,
    Java is crap for anything which uses a GUI. It is only usable for business apps unsing Java EE. SH3D itself is a (maybe the only one) real "(no IDE) application" which is written in Java and works fine. I never saw a Java app which runs flawless like a native compiled one. Also in SH3D you can detect Java issues sometimes. But performace is okay for use.

    Nevertheless I use the application for years. There is no other free application available which does the same. Emmanuel Puybaret does a great job. *thumbs up*

    Don't listen to the person who is thrashing Java.
    It's actually one of the better write-once run-anywhere technologies.
    It's a great program.
    I find the 3d rendering part has a lot of potential.
    It's using OpenGL which is the only cross-platform graphics API.

    For a free program, this is a pearl.
    Don't object Java, it's useful and not such a big deal as the previous poster thinks it is.
    He should get off his lazy a** (figure of speech) and just download+install it.

    Great looking program... but... I refuse to put Java on my PC. Java is bug ridden, slow and a security risk.

    Sadly, many people think that just because it is platform independent that it is the bees knees, well it's not, and I wish developers would stop using it.

    No matter what they say, the best programs are written as native compiled ones.
