+<h3><a name="System_Requirements"></a>System Requirements</h3>
+<p>The 1.5.2 version of the Java&nbsp;3D API has been released
+for
+Solaris (both sparc and x86/amd64), Linux (both x86 and amd64), Windows
+(both x86 and amd64), and
+Mac&nbsp;OS&nbsp;X (both PPC and x86).
+</p>
+<h4><a name="Solaris_Sparc"></a>Solaris Sparc</h4>
+<p>
+The 1.5.2 version of Java&nbsp;3D for Solaris SPARC requires the
+following:
+</p>
+<ul>
+ <li>JDK 1.5.0 or later from Sun Microsystems: <a
+ href="http://java.sun.com/j2se/">http://java.sun.com/j2se/</a></li>
+ <li>Solaris 9 or later</li>
+ <li>Frame Buffer with OpenGL 1.3 support or better (XVR-600,
+XVR-1200, Expert3D, etc.). A frame buffer with OpenGL 1.2 support will
+work, but with reduced texture mapping functionality.</li>
+ <li>OpenGL 1.3 for Solaris or later. To find your current version,
+use: "<code>pkginfo -l SUNWglrt</code>". OpenGL for Solaris can be
+obtained at: <a href="http://www.sun.com/software/graphics/opengl/">http://www.sun.com/software/graphics/opengl/</a></li>
+</ul>

+1.2 support will work, but with reduced texture mapping functionality. </li>
+</ul>
+<h4><a name="Windows"></a>Windows<br>
+</h4>
+<p>The 1.5.2 version of Java&nbsp;3D for Windows 2000,

+ <li>Support for either OpenGL or DirectX as shown below.<br>
+ </li>
+</ul>
+<ul>
+ <span style="font-weight: bold;">OpenGL version</span><br>
+ <ul>
+The (default) OpenGL renderer of Java&nbsp;3D requires OpenGL 1.3 or
+later,
+available from your graphics card manufacturer.

+ href="http://www.microsoft.com/windows/directx/">http://www.microsoft.com/windows/directx/</a>
+. The DirectX version of
+Java&nbsp;3D is selected by setting the "<code>j3d.rend</code>" system
+property
+to "<code>d3d</code>",
+for example:
+ <ul>
+ <code>java -Dj3d.rend=d3d ClassName</code>
+ </ul>
+ </ul>
+ <br>
+ NOTE: The DirectX version of Java 3D is used if a suitable version
+ of OpenGL cannot be found. Note also that DirectX is chosen by
+ default on Windows Vista systems with an ATI graphics card (due to
+ ATI driver bugs).
+</ul>
+<h4><a name="MacOSX"></a>Mac OS X</h4>

+<h3><a name="JoglPipeline"></a>JOGL Rendering Pipeline</h3>
+<p>A JOGL rendering pipeline, as described
+in <a href="https://java3d.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=229">issue
+229</a>, is now
+available on all supported platforms, including Apple Mac&nbsp;OS&nbsp;X
+(x86 or PPC). The easiest way to run Java&nbsp;3D applications
+using the JOGL
+pipeline is via Java Webstart from your browser (with no setup
+required).
+<a href="https://j3d-webstart.dev.java.net/test">Click here</a> to run
+a Java&nbsp;3D example program from your browser via the
+JOGL pipeline. These
+examples will use JOGL on Mac&nbsp;OS&nbsp;X and the native OpenGL pipeline on
+all
+other platforms.<br>
+</p>
+<p>The JOGL renderer is the default on Mac&nbsp;OS&nbsp;X.
+You can select the JOGL renderer on other platforms by setting the "<code>j3d.rend</code>"
+system
+property
+to "<code>jogl</code>",
+for example:
+</p>
+<ul>
+ <code>java -Dj3d.rend=jogl ClassName</code>
+</ul>
+<p>You will need to <a href="https://jogl.dev.java.net/">download
+JOGL</a>
+and include it in your PATH/CLASSPATH along with the Java&nbsp;3D jar files.<br>
+</p>
+<p>NOTE: Installing the j3d or jogl jars and native libs into the "ext"
+directory of the JRE is strongly discouraged. Doing so can cause
+conflicts with third-party applications launched via Java Web Start,
+and causes confusion later when upgrading the distribution.
