- Community Place VRML2.0 Browser 2.0 Preview Release D1b
-
- Our goal is the creation of a Virtual Society, an online, electronic,
- three dimensional CyberSpace. CyberSpace will be full of interesting
- places to visit, fun things to do and most importantly, other people
- to meet.
-
- The Community Place Browser is the window into this online world. It
- allows you to enter 3D worlds, to navigate around them, to interact
- with objects in these scenes and to meet and chat with other users.
-
- To allow this, the Community Place browser is a full VRML2.0 browser
- with Java language support that allows you and other to build and
- experience interactive, multi-media 3D worlds.
-
- However, Community Place is more than a standalone VRML2.0 browser,
- it's part of a sophisticated multi-user shared 3D CyberSpace. Each
- browser, when connected to a multi-user server, the Community Place
- Bureau, will allow you to choose your 3D representation in that world,
- your avatar, and will use that avatar to represent you in the shared
- worlds.
-
- Once connected to the Community Place Bureau you enter the shared
- world. Within it, you can see other people, wave to them, chat in
- groups, or even have private conversations. The browser and server
- support it all.
-
- In this software package you will find all you need to allow you to
- enter this world. The Community Place browser works fine as a
- standalone VRML2.0 browser and we've provided some demo files for you
- to load and enjoy. We've also provided a shared VRML world, Circus
- Park, that automatically connects to a public server when loaded.
-
- In addition, if the idea of building your own shared VRML world sounds
- fun, we provided a small server that runs of Win95 to enable you
- to do that. The server instructions tell how to install and run the
- server and how to make the small modifications needed to take a
- standard VRML2.0 file, and turn it into a shared 3D world.
-
-
-
- Enjoy !!
