What operating system do you use? You can edit vrml by hand - there is some
transparency switch. To view 3dmf effectively, you need a MacOS and Geo3D.

Not yet in therion, but I am actually working on it.

Well, to be honest - I do not know any good player, therefore I started to work
on my own :) Release is scheduled to april'06 :(

Yes, it should be.
