Integrated Web Server

Tuesday, December 6th, 2011

Just published a new tip covering the Integrated Web Server built in to Object2VR and Pano2VR. The tip explains the settings and how to use it so you can display the Flash or HTML5 outputs on devices connected to the same network without having to upload to a server.

The tip is under General Tips or can be found Here.

Pano2VR 3.1.2 released

Wednesday, November 2nd, 2011

We are happy to release a new version of Pano2VR. This is mainly a bug fix release. You can find the complete list of changes here. Two new features are a “Show in Explorer/Finder” in the context menu (right click) for all labels with file names. We also changed almost all dialogs to be non modal so you can now open more then one output or project window at the same time.
The file path handling has also been changed and the “base path” has been removed. All files are now relative to the project file.
To download this release please visit the updated Pano2VR download page.

Pano2VR in the Mac App Store

Wednesday, September 7th, 2011

After some back an forth with Apple, Pano2VR is now finally in the Mac App Store!

The current version in the Mac App Store differs from the normal Mac version in regards of file handling and other smaller changes required by Apple. Also the droplet feature is missing. Our plan is to sync the versions with the next minor release.

Pano2VR 3.1.0 released

Thursday, August 11th, 2011

We are happy to release a new version of Pano2VR. While looking at the features we decided that this justifies a minor release number instead of just a 3.0.1 release. Of course this moved back the planned features for 3.1 to 3.2 as you can see in the updated roadmap.

The major new features are WebGL support for the HTML5 output so now Firefox >=4.0 and Chrome >=9.0 are also supported. Another highlight is the built-in web server to simplify local testing.

Here is the complete list of the new features:

  • Built-in web server
  • HTML5 WebGL support (Firefox, Chrome)
  • HTML5 Gyro support
  • HTML templates now use SWFObject
  • HTML5 multi-touch support for Android 3.1 and Blackberry Playbook
  • Hebrew and Greek translations

There have been also a lot of bug fixes. For instance, Flash panoramas work again in Flash 9/CS4.
We also did a lot of the improvements in every other part of the software.
