[request] Again, web3D application?
-
Hi all,
I'm sure this has been discussed again and again but I don't know if anyone's still working on it. (let me know if there are any, thank you.)
We've got Modelers (Alias AutoCAD UG CATIA just to name a few) and Web applications (WireFusion, Papervision3D) but so far there is few develop environment that allows us to code both models and its online interaction. Java3D maybe?
I saw Sketchup macro editor from TBD but seems like it's not working at this moment. Any idea?

Hi Max,
I came across WireFusion the other day; it uses Java. It can also be pretty interactive (see the middle demo in the top line) on the page linked).
It's pretty pricey however but has a free version, too (obviously with limited features).
-
Sketchup Macro Editor idea was to have a simple interface to create ruby scripts with basicaly no knowledge of Ruby. it can be extended to an interface to create webapps that add interactivity to model presentation.
what will be the ideal web3d application for SU models for you ?

Hi Tavi,
Just a short list:
- navigation around (orbiting, panning, zooming)
- scenes with different layers on/off
- ability to change (obviously pre-defined) textures say on walls or roof tiles or colours of window frames
-
Perhaps I've got the wrong end of the stick here but why can't you use Quicktime to view the FBX files (Autodesk interchange format)?
It works pretty well and allows panning, zooming etc. and works on both Mac and PC

Hmmm...I'm asking for more actually.
Here is mine:- Navigation.
- Rendering options.
- Making changes to the model. Textures and also geometries.
- Collaboration. People can make modification simultaneously.
Ideally, it will be like online doc/spreadsheet. But I have no idea where we should start from?
