If anyone is interested I created this virtual walkthrough using unity and the fabulous Lightup plugin to flog to clients. Its also a great way of making rendered walkthroughs with smooth camera transitions without having to wait days for frames to render.

Hi Adam (fellow Brummie!)
Unfortunately, I can't get this to work on my computer. I'd love to see it.
Where in the big smoke are you?
-
Do you have the unity plugin installed in your browser?
-
I do. (which you would think.....)
-
hehe. yes, I would.
Dunno. I could see it with no problem. (Cool stuff indeed)
-
I'm actually having really bad internet problems here. So that could be the problem? The conservative party are having their annual conference here this week, and imagine everyone in the B12 area of the city are having their computers watched by MI5!!
(despite that B12 (Balsall Heath), is believe it or not, the inspiration for David Cameron's "Big Society"). There's a big poster that says "Birmingham welcomes the Conservatives". If that's so, and the tories/ Birmingham are so trusting, why is Broad Street shut and the massive police presence?The Big Society, btw, is a big joke, because despite what Cameron thinks, it doesn't work like he thinks it does around here. It's investment that makes things change (edit; like high speed broadband for all in the UK!), and all the tories want to do is cut, cut, cut. Labour invested, but in all the wrong things! Stupid politicians.
Sorry for the OT rant.
-
What a paranoid old fool I am? 
It wasn't MI5, but Safari!
I've updated to (the now FREE!) OmniWeb browser, and everything is tickety-boo!
-
Adam, it's working great in Omniweb! Made me feel sick- so it must be good!
How do you go through, or open the door?
Tom

Glad you guys like it, il write a basic workflow when i have a spare moment.
Tom, im in edgbaston by the reservoir, dont know about internet spying but there is plenty of choppers flying overhead because of cam's bash.
Unity is great, the possiblities are amazing if you have the time and effort to learn basic coding
btw you cant open the doors i didnt model anything beyond them,was just a demo really -

Then again, that opening post is huge.
Well what you get for a very little outlay is an absolute bargain. There of course is also a free version!
And of course, it works with SketchUp!
edit; but you are right. It was huge!

You're quite near me then!
And there is also David who is in Harborne. We are a cosy little city! Did you know that Birmingham is the same size as Berlin? Yet Birmingham feels far smaller, because it isn't built up so much. My dream would be to get Birmingham into Google Earth.
-
a good part of the centre is on google earth already...not for export into SU tho unfortunately. Great to hear there is a Brummie division of sketchucation! Chips and curry sauce all round
-
Balti's all around you mean!
A "Balti" means literally, "Bucket"!
The real definition of a Balti is a 'Karack'.
Either way, the result is making me hungry! (I live right on the "Balti Belt" in Birmingham's "Balti Triangle", the curry restaurant part of Birmingham)!
-
Mansell's in digbeth is my haunt when it comes to curry houses...service with a smirk is all your gonna get at those prices
-
I don't know Mansell's. It's the Diwan (Alcester Road, Moseley) or the Jyoti (Stratford Road, Hall Green) for me. Channi's is really good too, on Stratford Road, in Sparkbrook, but I haven't been there for a while. The Plaza on Ladypool Road used to be good also, but it's not as great as it used to be ever since winning restaurant of the year.
