SceneCreator0.3
Matt | 9 July, 2010 | 11:24
SceneCaster is an online application that allows people to create “spaces” which are 3d scenes on the browsers and share them which other. It is free to sign up and relatively easy easy to use. The main problems with SceneCaster are the requirements: The operating systems used are Windows XP or Vista and the browser must be FireFox or Internet Explorer. Also SceneCaster needs to install an application onto the users computer. These requirements limit the amount of people able to uses SceneCaster. I have created a demo using the c3dl library, which uses WebGL, to create a demo of SceneCaster called SceneCreator. This will allow many people to use SceneCaster without installing any software or pug-ins and will support many different browsers.
SceneCreator has its own GitHub , LightHouse, Website and is worked on daily by Matthew Postill (me). If you would like to see the progression of SceneCreator you can check out my blog at http://sonnilion.wordpress.com/. The demo is located here (requires a WebGL enabled browser). The demo is on version 0.3 and has 3 views 2D, 3D, and Google 3D Warehouse.

2D:
- display 3d object using bounding boxes, walls, lights, and enclosures in a 2d scene
- create wall
- insert lights
- new scene(delete all)
- walls, wall corner, and lights can be selected
- delete selected
- move selected
3D:
- add item to scene from the side bar
- item selection (clicking an item highs it blue and is set as the selected item) *wall are not selectable
- once an item is selected a user can (using the button above the scene):
- delete
- rotate
- move up/down
- scale
- copy
- move to position of the mouse
- camera widget
- 5 independent cameras
- save/load using local storage
Google Warehouse:
- view the Google 3D Warehouse website inside the browser
- back and forward functionality

DON'T WORK ANY EXAMPLE ON MY BROWSERS CHROME AND IE7
ONELI | 28 September, 2010 | 13:59DON’T WORK ANY EXAMPLE ON MY BROWSERS CHROME AND IE7
On IE7 (or any IE) no, they will not work.
peter | 1 October, 2010 | 8:32On IE7 (or any IE) no, they will not work. They’ve chosen to not support the WebGL spec.
They will work on chrome, but you have to tell the browser to turn WebGL support on by starting the browser from a command line using the flag ‘–enable-webgl’. See Tutorial #1 for more information on this.
It is possible that the link that matt has up
Cathy Leung | 1 October, 2010 | 13:53It is possible that the link that matt has up may have broken. A lot of changes have been going on with the WebGL spec and we have been working to get that updated. But what Peter says is true. This definitely will not work with IE but should work for a webGL enabled browser.
I am using Minefield with option WebGL 'allow for all

What os/video card setting are you using? It is

Hi, I'd like to ask a question that is relevant
Joe Hocking | 14 January, 2011 | 18:03Hi, I’d like to ask a question that is relevant to SceneCreator but the contact form doesn’t seem to be working. If someone could fix the contact form or follow up with me via email that would be great, thanks.
As long as I’m posting here though…
The Google Warehouse browser doesn’t seem to be working for me. I can go to the 2D and 3D views and those work great, but when I switch to Google Warehouse it’s just an empty window. Any thoughts?
