OpenVRML 0.16.1 is now available. The distribution can be obtained
from


<http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/...tar.gz?download>

OpenVRML is a C++ runtime library for VRML97 and X3D worlds. It is
capable of reading and displaying VRML/X3D; it can be used for creating
loaders, file converters, and VRML/X3D browsers.

OpenVRML includes a Mozilla browser plug-in.

You can find OpenVRML on the Web at

<http://openvrml.org>


New in OpenVRML 0.16.1:

- Replaced the Mozilla plug-in's openvrml-player helper program with
openvrml-gtkplug, a reusable out-of-process GTK+ VRML browser
component.

- Removed use of XPCOM from the Mozilla plug-in. This should allow
the plug-in to work in any browser that supports NPAPI and XEmbed
plug-ins.

- Added basic rendering of Text nodes on Windows. Font selection
remains unimplemented.

- Fixed problem where GtkGLExt was built even when not needed.

- Fixed problem locating the Rez resource compiler when building on
Mac OS X.

- Fixed problems building with Cygwin X11 OpenGL.

- Support building with FreeType 2.2.
