World Wind 1.4 and 3D Cities


It was a long and painful labour and at times the parents threatened to shoot the doctor, but finally World Wind 1.4 is out of the SVN as a release. I cross posted on the Google Earth Boards hoping to get some flame, but not much luck yet. There might be new forums for GE, need to check that out.

It is good to see more creative and progressive companies using World Wind as delivery platform for their creations and ideas. World Wind has similar potentials as Second Life in this respect and can create a significant trading ecosystem. Planet 9 Studios which specializes in 3D Modelling of buildings and cityscapes has several cities available in World Wind. The World Wind team is working to turn this into a suitable business idea for paying clients.
