I just released a new beta version of Object2VR. To work with larger projects (>1000 images) I added 64 bit versions for Windows and Mac OS X.

For the Mac release: Because Carbon doesn’t support 64bit I also provide a Cocoa build that has an Intel 32bit & 64bit and PowerPC universal binary. You need at least Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard to use the Cocoa build.

Some new features are:

• Better handling of larger projects
• Updated Skin editor
• Skin:Viewer Mode to switch between turn & move mode
• A lot of bug fixes

You can download this version (as always) from the Object2VR download page.

I just released Pano2VR 2.3 beta6 which is mainly a bugfix release for beta5.

The changes are:

• Switch back to Qt 4.5.3 because of OpenGL errors in Windows
• Bugfix: Flat images work now correct with hotspots
• Bugfix: Flat images showed sometimes a thin black line
• Bugfix: Skin: Endless loop (loop=0) changed volume
• Change of cylindrical FoV in viewing parameters works now faster

You can download the new version (as always) from the Pano2VR download page.

I just released Pano2VR 2.3 beta5.
