Hi

Unfortunately I have the same problem. I'd like to run a java applet which uses Java3D on Mac OSX Mountain Lion.

First I got the same Exception as apoy2k: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/media/opengl/GLCapabilitiesChooser

I followed the instructions and installed the following libraries:
j3dcore.jar (1.6.0-pre2)
j3dutils.jar (1.6.0-pre2)
vecmath.jar (1.6.0-pre2)

With JOGL2-rc8 and JOGL2-rc10 I still got the following Exception:

Exception in thread "thread applet-PluginTest.class-1"

Do you have a hint, how to solve this problem? Which versions of Java3D, JOGL and OSX are compatible with each other?

Thank you very much for your help!!
