3D Viewer?

Hi!,

Would anybody be aware of a small 3D viewer that I can package with a 3D model so then folks can download and view it?. Maybe as a single .exe?.

I’ve tried some of the 3D web viewers and even some 3D engines but they’re way too big. Nobody wants to download a 10 meg viewer (or java, or the net framework) just to view a single 1 meg model!. :eek: I even considered making my own 3D viewer with something simple like Blitz3D or Purebasic as they make really small executables, but their 3D engines lack normal mapping. :cry:

and why aren’t more people uploading their 3D models to the net for people to view in 3D?. Perhaps it’s a lack of 3D viewers? or maybe a fear of their models being stolen?.

i don’t know of a program off hand but i think this is why people do turntables and release them as videos, with most vid players you can scroll frame by frame to get a good view of the model.

Check it out to see if it meet your requirement. Ras3Der http://dan59314.myweb.hinet.net

After download the rar file. You can pack only the .exe file, delete others. The exe is about 4.6 MB

Thanks! :slight_smile:
