## Instructions for Unzipping Java 3D 1.4.0

The 1.4.0 version of the Java 3DTM API for Windows/XP and Windows 2000 runs on JDK version 1.4.2 and higher. See the release notes for more information.

NOTE: This zip bundle is intended for expert users who do not want to use the automated installer. Most users will want to download and install the java3d-1_4_0-windows-i586.exe file instead.

To manually install this build, do the following:

1. Download java3d-1_4_0-windows-i586.zip to a temporary directory, for example, "c:\Temp"
2. Unzip java3d-1_4_0-windows-i586.zip (using WinZip or a similar tool) into "c:\Temp". This will create a "java3d-1_4_0-windows-i586" subdirectory in \Temp where the downloaded files can be found. The file you need for manual installation is "j3d-140-win.zip".
3. Unzip Java 3D 1.4.0 into your JRE as follows:

- Locate your "JRE". The default location for the current release is: "c:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_06"
- Unzip j3d-140-win.zip (found in c:\Temp\java3d-1_4_0-windows-i586) to the jre directory.
- Verify that the j3d*.jar and vecmath.jar files end up in: "c:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_06\lib\ext"
- Verify that the j3d*.dll files end up in: "c:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_06\bin"

4. If you also installed the JDK, unzip Java 3D 1.4.0 into the "jre" directory of your JDK as follows:

- Locate the jre directory of your "JDK". The default location for the current release is: "c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_06\jre"
- Unzip j3d-140-win.zip (found in c:\Temp\java3d-1_4_0-windows-i586) to the jre directory of the JDK.
