I would like to know if anyone has figured out how to do this. Prior to the release, you couldn't run Yo!'s sim on a Macintosh because it requires java 6. Now that that's available, it should be doable... except you can't do it in Safari or FireFox because they're 32-bit environments, and Java 6 requires 64-bit.

I imagine you should be able to download the java and run it directly, outside a browser, but I'm not sure how. The sim itself appears to be at http://theorycraft.narod.ru/JavaLibrary1.jar, so I downloaded it, but I don't grok java. A brief look at the java man page suggests that "java -jar /path/to/JavaLibrary1.jar" should work, but it produces no effect (including no error message).

Does anyone else know how to do this?

Thanks.

There aren't any 64-bit browsers (as far as I know), and I assume it's because there really there isn't a big need for them. The problem with 64-bit browsers is that they don't work with 32-bit plugins (like Flash, Java, Quicktime, Adobe Reader, etc.). With Windows and everything else moving to 64-bit, I guess the need for 64-bit browsers (and 64-bit browser plugins) will go up, but it's still probably going to be a while before I can run Yo's sim on my Mac.

As for running it outside of a browser...I don't know. It should work, but with no error message I wouldn't even know how to begin to address it.

There are some 64-bit versions of browsers out there, but only because someone took the source code and made it into 64-bit. If you know how to do that, good for you; I have not the knowledge nor expertise to be able to do something like that. I wish I had a solution for you (and me).
