actually macromedia wouldn't even need to allow
the 3-D exporters to create shockwave files.
it would very well be enough to allow us to make
a generic player for w3d files.
it is easy to make such a thing with director,
but as far as I understand I am not allowed to do
it.
or is this only the case, if I charge money to play w3d files ??
insigths ?
tom ?
actually I can import generic w3d files into my
application, which runs as dcr in a browser.
and I know a very good programmer, which has some
top notch 3-D tools, a timeline for 3-D
animations (and even meshdeforming) and a tool to
inspect every single property of a 3-D scene,
lying in a drawer since quite some time... ;-)
we have enough code already to hack a simple
'online 3-D editor' together to create and edit
3-D objects or playback files authored in other
apps.
I am simply afraid, that this might violate the
license and render the work useless, because we
are not allowed, what macromedia didn't succed in
with shockmachine...
