Note: The installation file npSwirl3.xpi is no longer used. It was used for previous versions of the Mozilla browsers. Instead download the installation program on this page.
The current plugin runs only on Microsoft Windows. MacIntosh and Linux versions are under development.
System requirements: Microsoft Windows 2000/XP/Vista.
Microsoft Internet Explorer Plug-In
The plug-in for Internet Explorer will be installed and updated automatically when visiting a site displaying sw3d content. Therefore no separate installation program is necessary for Internet Explorer.
Publish Your Own 3D Content to the Internet
The SwirlX3D plugin requires that the 3D content be placed in sw3d format, which is a binary archive containing VRML and X3D files and supporting image files. To create sw3d files you will need a copy of the SwPublish. With SwPublish you will be able to create as many sw3d files as you like, with no display changes or licensing costs.
If you are looking for a free VRML or X3D viewer,
go to the SwirlX3D Viewer download page.
Other Plug-ins
Other plug-ins for VRML and X3D can be found in the X3D Documentation section of the Web3D Consortium web site.
