Forester

This places trees and other objects on a grid.

Example output - requires povray

Design Workshop

This creates buildings (interior and exterior), and exports in DXF format. The first image is a sample from the provided tutorial, and the second and third images are from using the software myself. It is evident from this what it can do.

Imvu chat website

Imvu - 3d chat website At Imvu, characters are put together by choosing clothing items, eye colour, etc. Additional items can be added later such as clothing, pets, furniture. In chat rooms, Imvu characters can be given movements to make (such as hug, kiss, greet) on another person, or expressions to do (such as smile, LOL - laughing out loud).

DOGA - Simple 3D Design

In Doga, built in parts are added and arranged to make an object. Then, fixed and moving objects are added to a scene. Motions are defined by specifying a start point (red), end point (red), and the position of two pink dots which indicates the trajectory.

Here is a movie created with bryce showing a plane moving across the screen. It is a bit jumpy because I didn't use many keyframes to speed up the rendering. Actually it was less than a second long when I first created it, but I stretched it out to 11 seconds by using Avi4Bmp to created a bmp containing all of the frames and then convert that bmp back to an AVI again (but at only 1FPS instead of 25FPS), I used microsoft paint to open the bmp and figure out the dimensions of one frame by changing the width and height (under image/attributes) until it only just fit. That was in fact at 864 (width) x 577 (height). Then I used Moyea Video4Web Converter to convert the AVI to a FLV, and mediaplayer.swf to play the FLV using browser flash technology (many browsers have this installed and if it's not installed it can be)

Box and CD

3D box/package online was used to make a 3d box and cd, see below. The images used come from my photobucket site (see 'photos').

Ivy Generator

A house object was taken and ivy was grown on it using ivy generator the original house object (in wavefront .OBJ format) is here . The only problem with this software I found was that the OBJ file exported from the ivy generator did not contain the house, only the ivy, so it was hard to try and combine the ivy and the rotated house. Also it was necessary to save a rotated house from the original house so that the ivy would grow in the correct direction for "up".

MakeTree for Povray

MakeTree is a PovRay script and example scripts to generate trees. The example images that were generated are given below. The only thing with PovRay is it does not output a VRML 3d object/scene - povray is for generating renders of 3d objects/scenes. More information about the maketree software is available here
