System Requirements

Engines, Libraries and Tools Java 3D
#1

Hey everybody,

I’ve never really found any system requirements for Java 3D. I know it depends on how much a 3D scene has and other factors, but in general, could someone tell me? Currently, these are my specs:

[tr]
[td]RAM:[/td]
[td]192MB[/td]
[/tr]

[tr]
[td]OpenGL:[/td]
[td]No (Video card doesn’t support it)[/td]
[/tr]

[tr]
[td]Direct3D:[/td]
[td]No (Video card doesn’t support it)[/td]
[/tr]

[tr]
[td]Processor:[/td]
[td]Pentium II[/td]
[/tr]

[tr]
[td]Video Memory:[/td]
[td]4MB[/td]
[/tr]

[tr]
[td]DirectX Version:[/td]
[td]7[/td]
[/tr]

[tr]
[td]Processor Speed:[/td]
[td]397~Mhz[/td]
[/tr]

But soon I will be ordering a 64MB Video Card /w Direct3D and OpenGL. Could anyone tell me if this would suffice? Or is it just a better idea to test it all and see how much my system can handle?

Youve got a pretty slow CPU and not a lot of memory.

Even with a fancy graphics card I’d expect this setup to chug along and/or run out of memory on very comples scenes.

Ahh that’s what I figured. I’m planning on buying a new PC later this, so I guess I can hold off on Java 3D for a while. But my 64MB Video Card I ordered should make some of a differance, that’l suit me well until I get a new PC.
