Question

I have a request to display VRML models within a .NET application. Does someone know an easy way, maybe with standard .NET components, to achieve this? What are the issues I maybe have to face when representing VRML within an application?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Get yourself a VRML ActveX control an insert that into your .NET app, you should be able to find one at www.web3d.org

OTHER TIPS

The VRML standard has evolved into X3D (which still supports the old syntax, but pushes an XML-based syntax now. For anyone viewing this thread, it would be better to search for X3D and .Net rather than VRML and .Net. Also, for the web, checkout X3DOM.

I think the main issue is that I hadn't seen anything/anyone using VRML in at least five years. I think you may be better off just finding a VRML->SVG converter. Displaying SVG in a browser is rather well-defined these days.
