Geo3D is freeware. Currently English, French and German
versions of Geo3D are available.
Geo3D lets you navigate through space rather than only manipulate the models. Geo3D relies on QuickDraw 3D (QD3D) for rendering, navigation and picking.
What's new? (see http://www.datacomm.ch/luzern/new.html)
* Fixed several memory leaks.
* Fixed a few cosmetic bugs.
* Recompiled with CodeWarrior Pro 5.
The minimal configuration to use Geo3D is:
* A PowerPC based Computer (PowerMac) with at least
32 megabytes of memory (RAM).
* Mac OS 8 or newer (or Mac OS 7.5.1 - 7.6.1 with
Appearance Extension 1.0.2 or newer)
* The system extension QuickDraw(TM) 3D, the libraries
QuickDraw(TM) 3D IR, QD3DCustomElements, and QuickDraw(TM)
3D RAVE version 1.5.4 or newer must be installed in
your Extensions folder.
Required for some features are:
* Internet Config extension version 2.0 or newer
* QD3D 1.6
Geo3D, QD3D 1.6, Internet Config, and Appearance Extension
are currently available from
<http://www.datacomm.ch/luzern/download.html>.
Geo3D performs best when run on a monitor set to thousands or millions of colors. In order to view transparent surfaces you must have either a hardware QuickDraw 3D accelerator or a plug-in renderer which supports transparencies.
Geo3D supports QD3D's 3D metafile (3DMF) format. 3DMF is a cross-platform (Mac, Windows, Unix) file format that can contain any 3D information the user can create, including all types of geometries and objects, plus textures, lights, shaders, cameras, active renderers, material properties, hierarchical information and more. Both text and binary formats are supported.
Geo3D will open a prefences file in the same folder as itself before looking in the Preferences folder for one. Deleting this file has no effect other than restoring factory defaults.
