Hi Ahmed,
My experience with Shout3D has been a very good one. True, as you said, its
not as robust as J3D but I don't thnik its intended to be. It does run
without a plugin as long as the browser is Java-enabled. Its a very nice
package for its purpose, namely to provide 3D content on the web without a
plugin.
Yours,
Chris Gates
