System requirements
JRE/JavaFX 8 [Java SE Downloads].
Maps/textures based on 'tif'-images require installed Java Advanced Imaging (JAI) or the cross-platform packages "jai_codec.jar" and "jai_core.jar" on the classpath. JAI 1.3.1 cross-platform packages: jai-1_1_3-lib.zip, last item on [JAI 1.3.1].
AquaFX is only supported on Mac OS X. The README-file informs how to enable it, download is available here [AquaFX].
JavaFX 8 restrictions/issues
- Rendering of double-sided geometry with culling property set to CullFace.NONE might fail due to not flipped normals (RT-30623).
- Transparency/opacity support is still under development (RT-28874, RT-34356).
Model importers restrictions/issues
- Converting normals to smoothing groups supports only a single group per face but not multiple groups per face. See javafx.scene.shape.TriangleMesh.getFaceSmoothingGroups() for more details.
- Smoothing groups are generated correctly only if the normals are non-redundant indexed.
- Transparency is not active, see above.
