Models/VRMLfiles/ModelsInfo
This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

File contents
Try loading JPEG and Sprite images into the background of the models. VRML file info ============== All models are best viewed with the front light on and usually with z-buffer. However, memory permitting some models can be improved with the following settings; Bridge - Z Buffer ON WindMill - Z Buffer ON Lamp - Z Buffer ON Rose - Double Sided Polygons Shoe - Z Buffer ON m1a2 - Z Buffer ON, Double Sided Polygons Porche - Double Sided Polygons The chemical models, Windmill and Lamp use built-in shapes such as Cube, Sphere, Cylinder and Cone. These Shapes are stretched, rotated and scaled to form complex models. See the 'MakingMods' file and make your own VRML models with VRMLeyes. A lot of VRML are simply conversions from other formats. Often the file contain only the shape information, not colour and lighting. Some models on this disc were painted in DaVinci90 3D modeller to give them a bit of life. the PORCHE and SHOE for example originated as dull blue shapes.
