"MEAT.SPACE plaza" by Gabriele Kepplinger Starting development in 1996 as V3O by Rocket Science Games, later transferred to Attitude Software being renamed 3D Anarchy, and then sold to Adobe in 2000 and rebranded in 2001, Atmosphere Player is a web plugin made for viewing interactive 3D worlds, similar to the VRML standard, created in Atmosphere Builder. It was mostly intended for virtual media galleries, which could present images/audio/video and the 3D models themselves. When it first started as 3D Anarchy, the software was still in Beta when Adobe acquired the tech for further development, where it spent the next 3 years in beta testing, and the last release version 1.0 of the Player was released in February 2004. In December 2004 it was announced that Atmosphere would be discontinued, with support being cut in January 2005. |
