Alan,

If you would print the following

	B3DMatrix4x4 identity composeWith: B3DMatrix4x4 identity

You should see something like

1.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 
0.0 1.0 0.0 0.0 
0.0 0.0 1.0 0.0 
0.0 0.0 0.0 1.0 

If you don't, I would suspect a problem compiling the Squeak3D plugin. In the error report you provided, the number that triggered the error was 5.44392151354573e15 which, if one switched the order of the words, would be a much more plausible -2.000005269054693. I have a hunch that the B3D stuff disagrees with the rest of the system on the right order for these words.

Cheers,
Bob
