CS372 Spring 1998 program 7

Build a small VRML world

Write a program and data to create a small house. One wall is to be textured mapped with a picture of you or other externally entered picture. In front of the house and to its right should be your initials, in large letters. In front of the house and to its left should be your name and "PROGRAM 7" and the month/day/year you wrote the program.

You need something in the image that moves. This can be something that jumps, flies, responds to a click. If these are problems, supply a programmed list of view points.

Turn in a listing of the VRML program and two printouts of the image. The images are to show the results of the motion.

Check on the class home page for sites showing how to write VRML. It is expected that you will copy many, or all of the pieces from other examples (not from others in the class). However, the resulting image/world is to be your own.

Examples of displaying an object with a texture map can be found in http://www.ndsu.nodak.edu/instruct/juell/cs724s98/foils/weather-blocks.wrl

You will need to work on valley if you want the images available from the web. You can work from a floppy and display only on the local machine.

You can work in groups. Each member is is to have their image, initials and name in the image. If you have a group, you need one special item in the image for each member of the group. This could be a hand built object, special item with say set to impenetrable etc.
