X3D represents the next version of VRML. The current version of VRMLmagic outputs X3D compliant files. X3D is currently still being developed and when it is in place as a standard VRMLmagic will use this as an output format. Perhaps VRMLmagic will change its name to X3Dmagic at this time. X3D is described by the Web3D Consortium as: “Today, the Web3D Consortium is utilizing its 1500-2000 strong Internet development community, and its broadbased industry support to systematically move the VRML97 ISO Standard forward. Our many prominent technical activities include the Extensible 3D (X3D) specification, which is extending VRML97, using the Extensible Markup Language (XML).” If you’d like more information on X3D, what it is and how it works, try our X3D Information page.
