[Xvrml-announce] New Release of Carina 3D viewer available for Win/Mac/Linux

[Jeff S. <jso...@gm...>]

Thanks Dave!
There is a new drop of Carina in SourceForge
with the following changes:


   - Errors in files now show up as a button in the status bar
   - Information window on the worlds has been moved to the view menu
   - Animated gif support added to image textures
   - Added support for libxslt to convert files instead of using Java
   - Added open recent menu option
   - Added basic help system
   - Bugfix: Commas in vrml files are handled better
   - Bugfix: Saving of some values in preferences fixed

The VRML import, especially from files created by modelers and containing
zillions of commas, is much improved. And the best part? Dave
has implemented animated GIF support in Carina, so artists get
to take the first steps away from building "ghost town" scenes,
and the first intimations of movement and dynamicism have entered
the arena.

As usual, Dave is distributing binaries for Windows and Mac and
source tree for Linux.
