Ter'Angreal

( We're quite aware that the current testing 3D environment is simple and not extremely attractive. So far we've focused almost entirely on the underlying technology and not put much effort into application-level demos and pretty pictures. Want to make this beautiful? Join us!)



Here is a temple and a tree created by Sean Gallager (a/k/a 'hoda').



Well, the image itself pretty much says it. You can apply "text/plain" as a material to an object and you'll get text drawn onto the texture as shown.



This image demonstrates an experimantal feature: using surfaces on objects as a live Web browser (yes, it's a fully functional embedded Mozilla browser!). Look for this cool feature in future versions.



Now on startup Ter'Angreal can find available virtual worlds automatically and present the user with a list. This uses the new service discovery features in VOS.



This image demonstrates an animated MD2 (Quake II) format model, and a simple particle effect ("snow").



This is a "billboard". It is a 2D image that always faces towards the user. They can be shaped (have transparent parts) as you see here.


More examples of model loading (OBJ and 3DS). All objects can be moved, rotated and scaled using the mouse and keyboard. All other users in the world see all changes immediately.
