I'm working a lot with realtime 3D using the open standard X3D (former known as VRML): www.web3d.org. It would be nice if these files could be indexed by Tracker too. VRML and X3D files are textfiles and can be compressed using GZip. VRML include meta information in the worldinfo node: http://accad.osu.edu/~pgerstma/class/vnv/resources/info/AnnotatedVrmlRef/ch3-355.htm Extensions of VRML files are wrl and wrz (for compresssed files) X3D, the successor of VRML, can be written in XML syntax or the old VRML syntax. In both syntax it can save meta information in WorldInfo node or in meta data nodes (head section): http://www.web3d.org/x3d/specifications/ISO-IEC-19775-X3DAbstractSpecification/Part01/components/core.html#Metadata See http://www.web3d.org/x3d/content/X3dTooltips.html#meta About binary encoding of X3D: http://www.web3d.org/x3d/specifications/ISO-IEC-19776-3-X3DEncodings-CompressedBinary/ About file extensions of X3D: http://www.web3d.org/x3d/learn/mimetypes/ X3D Example: http://www.neeneenee.de/vrml/Figure05.03bCylinderTranslation.wrl.txt http://www.web3d.org/x3d/content/examples/Vrml2.0Sourcebook/Chapter05-PositioningShapes/_pages/page01.html It would be nice if Tracker could index these files. I can provide any help with it. If you like to support it would be a pleasure for me answer your questions. Thanx! Karamba!
