Multi-user virtual world viewer (web-based)

Hi all,

I'd like to mention our recently released BSD-licensed project based on Irrlicht and Irrlicht.NET CP: 3Di Viewer "Rei", which is a 3D client software for interacting with multi-user virtual worlds.

Screenshots here: http://3di-rei.org

Currently Rei works with the open source OpenSimulator server back end (also BSD-licensed), which can support virtually infinite-sized worlds spread out over multiple physical servers. The combined platform is quite flexible and allows you to develop multi-user games or 3D applications.

Rei can run inside a web browser and allows interaction between 3D world objects and 2D web contents via JavaScript. The interaction between 3D world and 2D Internet contents can be a stepping stone to a future 3D Internet (3Di).

Windows platform is fully supported; Linux support needs optimization.

For more information and screenshots see here:
3Di Viewer Rei: http://3di-rei.org (client)
OpenSimulator: http://opensimulator.org (server)

Please have a look if you are interested or would like to get involved in development.

Thanks,
-nlin
