It's still at the beginning, but it's really coming close now - the first beta version of firefox 4 has been released, and includes full support for WebGL. http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/4.0b1/releasenotes/ > why don't we in the meantime look at embedding some 3D features in the > plugin ? It would mean that we would have to replicate it for every browser, and most likely every plateform. It's big, much more than everything we have done or thought of in the project so far - I don't think we have the resources for that kind of things at this stage. > I remember playing a little bit with Unity at Ubisoft for instance, > and it was not bad at all, though we don't need all the features they > have.

Nothing that I know of, no. I think a prerequisite for this kind of things is the implementation of WebGL - standardization is the open source way ;p Xavier. _______________________________________________ Hackit Bar mailing list - [email protected] Wiki: http://community.hackit.cx/ List: http://community.hackit.cx/ml/ Forum: http://community.hackit.cx/forum/ Ideas: http://community.hackit.cx/ideas/ IRC: irc://irc.freenode.net/#politis
