For the most part, Javatc3d is just like standard javatc (which will
remain available, this is not a replacement). Phil, myself, and a few
others have used it for a couple years off and on (not too much time
with it however). Yeah, it's been around a while, it just wasn't linked.
Anyway, the main changes are:
1) The 3D graphic. This graphic requires that WEBGL be turned on in your
browser. Allows you to manuever the coil around in 3D space and view
from any angle as well as zoom in and out (mouse wheel). Most browsers
have webgl turned off by default. If webgl is not turned on, it will
likely break the program. I use Firefox, and it's not too difficult to
turn on webgl there... just type in the address bar "about:config" and
press enter... Allow yourself access when the message pops up... then
search for "webgl.force-enabled" and set to TRUE. That's all there is to
it. For other browsers, I have no clue (google is your friend).
3) In the secondary inputs a new input is extC(pf). Most of you should
just leave this 0. This was pulled over from Javats (another version
most were not aware of). For guys like Steve Ward, Phil Slawinski, and
John Forcina who have built Tesla Guns (you may have heard and seen
those on youtube or at say a Teslathon). Those particular coils used an
external capacitor bank on the secondary coil. This is inserted mainly
for that purpose.
Those are the main changes, the rest is pretty much Javatc as you guys
know it. I don't have a downloadable version yet. Also, there are bugs
(have no doubt about that). We will deal with them as time permits. One
thing that can happen and I've seen it, is the graphic may all of sudden
not show a component. Haven't put my finger onto why that happens yet,
but it does happen from time to time. Only way to fix it now is to
reload and re-enter data. The numbers however are not affected.
I hope everyone is doing well.
Best regards,
Bart Anderson (aka Gort)

Hi All,
It's been a while since I posted here, but I just wanted to let everyone
know that Bart Anderson just released JavaTC3D. The reason I'm making this
announcement is because I wrote the 3D display part. The 3D TC display
software is open source and you can get the code here:
http://www.classictesla.com/java/javatc3d/script/TC3D.js
The 3D display is where the normal 2D drawing would be. You can left click
and drag to rotate the display, right click pans, and the mouse scroll
wheel zooms.
Also there is now a ring toroid utility which is pretty neat. There are
other features as well, but I'll let Bart list those.
