My previous post responding to this issue does NOT fix the problem. I tested the proposed solution before posting it, but the test was compromised by a 20 year old "ClosedFacetedSurface.class" file that was lurking on my system that I had forgotten about.

The real solution consists of 2 steps.

Step 1 -- Create a stub of ClosedFacetedSurface,java to resolve the dependency link. The method doesn't have to be functional because CM Creator does not actually call it (yet).  The stub method goes in package  com.jreality.cmodel.rcs_geom

Step 2 is to change all references of the form
com.jreality.geometry.shape3.ClosedFacetedSurface
to
com.jreality.cmodel.rcs_geom.ClosedFacetedSurface

Such references occur in the methods
com.jreality.cmodel.rcs_geom.IntegrableSurface3
com.jreality.cmodel.rcs_subdiv.Partition
com.jreality.cmodel.rcs_subdiv.UNormalPartn
com.jreality.cmodel.rcs_subdiv.VNormalPartn
com.jreality.cmodel.rcs_subdiv.VNormalPartn
com.jreality.cmodel.ExtSurface

Most of these are import statements.

With these 2 steps completed, the compile script ".compile_creator" provided in the _src.tgz distro file should work ok.  CM Surveyor is not needed at all.  These changes have been made to the CM Creator master files and will be in the next release to avoid these issues in the future.

Here is the source for the  stub class that can be cut and paste into your CM Creator source directories, for anyone so inclined:

I apologize for the previous wild goose chase.  

On the positive side, it did serve as an intro to CM Surveyor, which is planned to serve as the bridge for implementing java3d in CM Creator, and identified some of the challenges involved.
