Plug-ins that don't suck
Plug-in junkyard
Animation
Sizzler Displays streamed, inline animations that
begin playing right away, and slowly acquire more detail. Try squinting
your eyes and yelling, "Focus!" for atmosphere.
FutureSplash The vector-based animations are great
and all, but the developer (FutureWave) releases new versions every few
seconds. If you don't have the very latest version, you'll learn to
appreciate the subtleties of the broken plug-in icon.
VRML
Vrealm It's a good plug-in. In fact, it may even
be a great plug-in. But unless you're a card-carrying Windows user,
you're in the wrong line.
VR Scout VRML It's not a bad plug-in, it's just
that you could learn Sanskrit in the time it takes to figure out the
navigation bar.
WIRL It's a decent plug-in, but gosh darn it, how many times do we have to say it? Mac users want to fly around VRML
worlds, too.
