README - VR3DObjects
VR3DObjects is a simple application that illustrates ways of using the QuickTime VR API. VR3DObjects uses Apple's QuickDraw 3D to provide support for 3D objects. You can open a 3D file (in 3DMF format) and render the scene in that file in a panorama. The current demo shows how to use this capability to play QuickTime movies in a panorama, by texture-mapping the movie onto a 3D object.
A few gotchas:
• This sample is work in progress; it should get more powerful in the near future.
• Currently only a PowerPC version of the demo is provided.
• The method of playing QuickTime movies demonstrated here is not the ideal method. Stay tuned for more kosher means of inserting a movie into a panorama.
