There is a very interesting program for the PC called "Virtual Reality Studio". It allows construction & playback of 3D modeled worlds with interaction. The documentation has AMIGA splashed all through it, as the program supposively runs on your favorite platform. Anybody seen it on the Amiga, Comments? There are several companies listed in the packaging: It looks like "New Dimensions International" wrote the code. "Incentive Software" owns the copyright on FREESCAPE (perhaps the library toolkit used: 'freescape 3D system'). Domark gets their name on the packaging. Accolade handles distribution and customer service. I believe the design/implementation team is British. If you are interested in VR, there is a very active discussion over in the COMART forum, VR subsection. I'd like to see some more amiga folks there. We are discussing how to implement our own portable shared-ware VR system. Jerry Isdale

I had a older version of VRS called '3D Construction Kit' that came from Domark. I had several problems with it like not being able to install it on a harddrive (and if I remember it was PAL mode too, I haven't touched it in a bit). Other than that I never learned to get along with its interface. Maybe I will contact Domark and see if I can upgrade to the new VRS version of the software. Then I will give it a second shot.

Haven't seen VR Studio for the Amiga but a recent .INFO mag gave it a decent review. >>>> Ron Legro / Milwaukee via WHAP! "Wherever you go, there you are!"
