Why don't you use VRML?

VRML is dead. I had cave surveys in it and it was never satisfying. The next thing might be: http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2003/08/06/x3d.html. Ultimately, computer images are 2D, and the fuss about making high frame rates merely so you can drag the mouse back and forth is, I think, over-rated. Animation in time is very useful on a 3D image, but not necessarily animation in viewing angle. Unfortunately all the tools are optimized to do the latter, but not the former. Julian T.
