DEPENDENCIES 1. VIRSYS (VIrtual Robot SYStem) Go to http://www.virsys.org/get_started.html, and get * GLUT library (install to Windows\system ...) 2. Java Go to http://www.java.com/en/download/ Netbeans GO to http://netbeans.org/downloads/ 3. LWJGL (Light Weight Java Graphics library) Go to LWJGL Dir and read README RUNNING THE PROJECT Run both programs simultaneously: *Robot.java <-- from this project, virsysJ * virsys.exe <-- from the VIRSYS download Put your robot code in Robot.java. A sample is provided. note: Because "VIRSYS.exe" is a network intensive application (localhost loopback) that nobody has ever heard of, you may need to work with your antivirus software. Norton "Sonar" actually deletes (quarantines) VIRSYS.exe when you run it the first time. You need to tell it and simillar packages not to do that! In Norton this is not exactly straight forward, but there is an undo and accept button in there somewhere on the "Sonar" warning window that pops up (not exactly where you'd expect to find it, so keep navigating!) -Taken directly from the virsys site
