Osx 15.2

Hello

since the newest OS update on Macs, Sequoia 15.2), jmonkey applications are not working anymore. The test examples run, but show no graphics (black screen) or a flickering screen.

Any ideas?

Thank you, Michael

Do you recognize any suspicious stacktrace? or any error dialog so far?

I’m running JME apps successfully on macOS Sequoia 15.3 (24D60).
I’ve run them on both Java 1.8 and Java 21.
I’ve run them on both JME 3.7.0-stable and 3.8.0-alpha2.

There are a few gotchas:

  1. To run on macOS, you must pass “-XstartOnFirstThread” to the JVM.
  2. To run on Apple Silicon, you must specify LWJGL v3 (jme3-lwjgl3) instead of LWJGL v2 (jme3-lwjgl) and disable the AWT settings dialog in main() with application.setShowSettings(false).

If you’re still stuck, please provide the Java version and JME version you’re using.
