white_dune is a graphical VRML97/X3DV editor, simple NURBS/Superformula 3D modeller, animation tool, and a very limited VRML97/X3DV commandline compiler in development. VRML97 (Virtual Reality Modeling Language) is the ISO standard for displaying 3D data over the Web via browser plugins ("HTML for realtime 3D"). X3DV is the direct successor of VRML97. VRML97 and X3DV have support for animation, real-time interaction, and multimedia (images, movies, and sounds). white_dune can read, create, and display VRML97/X3DV files and let the user change the scenegraph/fields. It also has support for stereoscopic view via "quadbuffer"-capable stereo visuals, and support for 3D input devices like a joystick, spaceball, or magnetic tracker.

Recent releases


Changes: This release adds X3D generator support for all X3D ISO/IEC 19775-1:2008 nodes (though a lot of nodes are not completely rendered), changes the interpretation of "something/filename" in URL.cpp from "http://something/filename" to "./something/filename", fixes a missing X3D dependency of textureProperties fields, and fixes a minor problem with the wrong definition of the maximum length of a path.


Changes: This release fixes a crash in empty CADFace nodes, incorrect node/classtype matching, a crash when loading a Script node, and a bug when handling URLs as filenames with unusual characters. It adds support for export of ImageTexture to the SUN Wonderland module source.


Changes: A crash caused by missing initialization of the solid field of the SuperExtrusion node was fixed. A minor array read access problem in motif code was fixed. Picking component nodes was added. The X3D components toolbar was split into two parts. A wrong call convention in the MS Windows port resulting in a crash in triangulation gluTess functions was fixed.


Changes: Node type settings of SFNode/MFNode fields were completed for all ISO/IEC 19775-1:2008 nodes. Text export to Wonderland was disabled because it would would void the whole scenegraph, though Text export to jME is still working. A problem with Java keywords in Java source code exporting was fixed. A rendering problem was fixed in case of missing TextureCoordinates in Wonderland module export. Documentation about the Wonderland module export was added.


Changes: Missing axisRotation X3D fields were added to CylinderSensor and PlaneSensor. An incorrect check for directory existence was fixed. Problems with jME/Wonderland export caused by null pointer exceptions were fixed. A problem with C++ keywords in C++ source code export was fixed.
A small, secure, and easy to configure Usenet server with an optional GUI.

Cause of a buffer overflow and a format string error, all older versions than 0.29beta795 and 0.28pl13 should not be used.<BR/>
This also includes <a href="dune.sourceforge.net/&...; (white_dune is a fork of dune-0.13).<BR/>
Unfortunatly, the security problems are located in a errormessage routines, so it is rather simple to build a exploit.
