Greetings-

> Anybody been setting up VRML sites yet?

I'm trying! If appears to me that if you're not using an SGI connected to a
T1 line, it's still a bit too early. Webspace 1.0 with Netscape 2.0 on my
P-100 is severly twitchy at this point, but they are still free betas. With
my 28.8 modem connection, it can take 10 - 15 minutes to download anything
more elaborate than a scene with a few simple solid colored, shaded
objects. Navigation is still marginal at best, too.

>Somebody mentioned a new version that saves scenes->VRML as well,
>any leads on the release date?

This would be wonderful, is it actively being developed? I want one! Using
Lightwave to develop Web sites (beyond the logos, that is) would be a treat
after using HoTMetaL Pro. Fountain has some promise, but I'd much prefer
using Lightwave.(If you've used Caligari -AAACCCKKK!- then you'll be right
at home with Fountain. The beta is available for free from
www.caligari.com/ws/fount.html). Also, is there any documentation on the
.wrl saver plug-in, or does it just save them and that's that. I've RTFM and
the CD rom docs to no avail.

Mark

p.s. If you're curious, and promise not to hurl on my URL, go to
www.snell.com/mainpage/  and   www.primenet.com/~grover/   to see my html
handywork in all of its 256 color glory (Lightwave was at least slightly
involved!).
