| The summer solstice is upon us, and what
better way to celebrate this than by
watching the sun break over Stonehenge . . . .
But what if you're currently in the US? Or Japan?
Worry not . . . using Superscape's* 3D technology, you can
be educated in how Stonehenge
was created over the years, marvel at how easy it is
to explore the mysterious stones, and
watch the sun rise--all from the comfort of your own Intel architecture based PC.
The virtual Stonehenge world is brought to you by a joint venture
among Intel, English Heritage* and Superscape VR* plc of Hook, UK. | |
Requirements for viewing the Stonehenge 3D model
Note: We strongly recommend Windows 95 due to the complexity of the Win32s installation under Windows 3.1x. Additional requirements: | |
| 1) Superscape's Viscape* Plug-in / ActiveX control. Note: Viscape for Netscape Navigator was released Friday, June 14th, so if you downloaded an earlier version to view the dancing sailors in the Pentium(R) processor 200Mz launch, you will still need to download this new version to view Stonehenge. Viscape ActiveX control for Microsoft's Internet Explorer is now available | 2) Win32S (v1.03) If you are running on a 16bit operating system (Windows 3.1x) then you will need Win32S (v1.03) in order for Viscape to work. If you have a 32bit operating system (Windows 95) then Win32S is not required. |
| 3) Netscape* 2.0 Viscape is both a Netscape 2.0 plugin and a Microsoft ActiveX control, and therefore you'll need Netscape's Navigator 2.0 or Microsoft's Internet Explorer Beta 2 (or later versions) | 4) 16bit colour The Stonehenge world will run on 256 colours, but it is best viewed with high colour (16bit or above). |
|
5) Download the Stonehenge model from the Intel (U.S. West Coast) or Superscape (U.K.) sites.
Download the required tools mentioned above.
