Next logical step would be WASM, I suppose. Then I could easily show everyone in the world 12-year-old-tombert's masterpiece "Fatso Man and Tarzan Baby".
ETA: I'm gonna give it a go with Claude tonight. Need to justify my $100 membership somehow.
Your point stands, it's very impressive. But Dragon in America was a cut above even that. Just look at the "chase scene" starting at 10:00 (even just 15 seconds should be enough to make my point)
For anyone not familiar with 3DMM, there was no facility to move "the camera" to any apparent camera movement was just moving each primitive object, as far as I know, one piece at a time.
wow, such an amazing job! really a gymkhana of libraries to port/change. makes me think in the (unknown future) portability of the software I create today

UPDATE: About an hour with Claude gave me this: https://3dmmex.pages.dev/
It actually works reasonably well from what I can tell, though I haven't thoroughly tested it.
Here's the WASM source to those interested: https://github.com/Tombert/3DMMEx_WASM
Doesn't work on brave on mobile, says fonts are missing Maybe you can bundle the fonts?
Honestly there's a huge void online for a new xtranormal
Agreed. Now that 3DMM is open source, someone should make a video about how Kubernetes is Web Scale.

The most fantastic video I've ever seen created in Microsoft 3D Movie Maker is 'Grandpa Found the Car Keys': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGJKeESLBpQ
A very impressive use of the tool to achieve a pretty impressive amount of style within the limitations.

I had forgotten how much time I spent with this software until I saw the screenshot. Thanks for the port!
Awesome! I can now ditch Windows. The year is finally here.
TPM tamper detection and bitlocker disagree. Backup your key first...

Just about any *nix platform is a better experience now, but many Steam games are still windows only. =3
Are you suggesting there are games that are not 3D movie maker that are worth playing?
A lot of legacy applications will not work in Wine.
86box is a great option for old programs and games... no herculean porting efforts required. =3

I used 3dmm throughout my high school making movies for school projects and side projects for laughs.
This is an absolute gem! Thank you!
Does anyone know why the 3DMMForever project stalled? Was technical or was it just a general lack of interest?
This one looks to be the active fork, https://github.com/benstone/3DMMEx
i should have read the article first...
RIP Pozin
I remember this source was released a while back and some people hacked it together to run on modern Windows.
Yay!

Brings me back! Well done!
That's peretty cool!!
I had never heard of this piece of software before. I would be very interested in trying it out on Linux.
