Shout3D™ 1.0 - QuickStart Tutorial

Open Sesame!

The Shout3DWizard lets you start with a 3D file in one of two formats: VRML 2.0 or .s3d. VRML is an industry standard that may be exported from many popular modeling programs, such as 3D Studio Max and LightScape. The .s3d format is the Shout3D format -- a similar, but more compact format you can use by allowing the Shout3DWizard to convert the files for you.

Load the 3D file rotatingWindow.wrl
  • Click the word "File" in the upper left corner. This exposes a pulldown menu.
  • Click "Open VRML..." to launch a file chooser.
  • Use the chooser to select and open the file "rotatingWindow.wrl"
  • Your window should now look like the picture on the right, with the words in the wide buttons rendered black instead of gray.
