Sun's Java3d Scenegraph Editor and free Java3d tools
------------------------------ from our Java.net
community and Sun's VRML Loaders and Sun's JMF
are important tools for creating 3d content,
rendering it in a browser, and creating ".mov"ies.
eg.:
https://mjbworld.dev.java.net
| Within Sun's __ Java.net ___ developer community
|
| are __ Free 3d Editors __ to let you create VRML
|
| with Java3d so it can animated by your Java3d program
| in a browser without certificates, extra downloads,
| or the need for Webstart wrappers [ beyond Java3d ].
|
| | This is a tool for creating 3D
| | and physics animation content.

| | Translators allow Art of Illusion to read and write

| |
| | At present, Art of Illusion is distributed with
| | a single Translator plugin which allows it to

| 3D modelling and rendering studio.
| ---------------------------------
|
| It is written entirely in Java, and should be
| usable on any Java Virtual Machine which is compatible
| with JDK 1.1 or later.
|
| The current version is 1.4, released February 15, 2003.
|
| This version is both stable and powerful enough
| to be used for serious, high end animation work.
|
| Many of its capabilities rival those found in
| commercial programs.
|
| Some of the highlights include
|
| subdivision surface based modelling tools,
| skeleton based animation, and
| a graphical language for designing procedural
| textures and materials.
