Visviva Authoring Studio - Gallery of Animation

Hall of Animated Amusements

If you have an Internet Explorer browser, clicking on any picture in this gallery will begin downloading the VAE Web Plug In, and allow you view the animations below in action. If you have a Netscape browser, or if you'd like more information about the download process, click here.

The current VAE Web Plugin uses the OpenGL accelaration. Therefore, you need an OpenGL video card in order to view the smooth 3D animation. Our D3D version of the Web Plugin will be available in October, 2001.

All of the interactive animations on this page were created with the tools available in the Visviva Authoring Studio.

If you have any questions regarding Web publication for VAE animations, we invite you to check out our Information and Instructions page.

Reflection Pool. Leaves fall into the surface of water amidst reflections of a surrounding glen. A light refraction effect is added beneath the water. Click and drag to stir the surface of the water, and see how leaves collide with the wall of the pool and disturb the water.
You can use the Visviva Authoring Studio to create this complex application without knowing anything about programming! Click here to see our tutorial that describes how to make this 3D scene from start to finish!

Wet Grasslands Navigation. This is a navigable 3D Scene you control by clicking the mouse. Explore a realistic Wetlands environment with wind, grass, floating butterflies and running water.
Tutorial will be available soon!

Fireworks (New Version). This new version of the firework simulation demonstrates more than 20 different styles of fireworks, smoke and lighting effects. Each of these effects are created by the Visviva Authoring Studio's particle animation.

Rubix Cube. Play instructions: drag to rotate the cube; click to select a face; arrow and page up/down keys to rotate the face.

File Browser Sample. This sample is created by the VAE File Browser, which offers an incredible flexibility for you to design stylish browsers for your CD-ROM titles or Web contents. Want to know how to make your own customizable version of this application? Click here to see our Visviva Authoring Studio tutorial!

Web Browser. This is a test of the concept of our future ScriptV Web (still under construction) which contains a browser for the showcase, templates, and on-line documentation. Let us know what you think and tell us about what we can improve. Thanks!

Lightining Over Animated Sea Surface. The lightning is created by an animation that combines flashing, growing, and forking. Though a sound is not included, you can easily add one by assigning your own sound file to the "sound" attribute. The intensity of the lightning is connected to a directional light in the scene, so the entire scene flashes when the lightning is in effect. (50fps tested on P3-600/GeForce2)

Waterfall. The waterfall is created by a stream of water textures bent along a particle motion path. The waterfall changes its direction when it hits the stone.

In this example, we used the texture image shown on the right. You can provide different textures to create various special effects such as fires, smoke, and explosions. (45fps tested on P3-600/GeForce2)

Transparent Kaleidoscope. This is an animated texture image that provides an experience remarkably similar to looking through an actual kaleidoscope. Watch and be amazed! (60fps, fullscreen, tested on P3-600/GeForce2)

Transparent Orb with Colliding Spheres. This interactive animation provides another particle system and an inkling of some of the possibilities open to you with 3D objects, transparencies, and collision detection. Click and drag on the large ball to set it spinning. You can vary the speed by how fast or slow you drag the mouse. (60fps, fullscreen, tested on P3-600/GeForce2)
