I'm looking for a program for the PC that will stich a quicktime or movie file together so that I can view a model in a window...like a panorama but not looking around, just spinning around and looking in at the object. I've made a similar viewing window with the mac many years ago...with QTVR, but now I'm using PC and I need to do it again. Thanks Oh yeah, I'm not looking for Stitcher, it costs too much for what I'm doing.

Never Give Up!

Can you post a link to an example you'd like to do on your PC? What program did you use on your Mac? QTVR can be done on PC's also.

Apple advertises their computers online so you can view it 360 degrees around, like a fly around.

Sorry, I can't quite grasp what you're trying to do. Does it have to be a movie? Are you using Carrara? Have you looked at Scenebuilder, which is free? Doesn't produce a movie, though, produces a Viewpoint Object which can then be rotated/viewed from all angles/zoomed etc. Here's a description that makes it sound more frightening than it is http://developer.viewpoint.com/index1.html?dev&developerzone/5-211_detail.jsp?tool_id=11 (you'll need to copy/paste that link) Here's a link to a tutorial to using Scenebuilder, with an example of what it can do http://training.viewpoint.com/training/vet_content_creation.html

Thank you pogmahone. I just spaced out Viewpoint. I've seen Webexport before but didn't think to use it. Wow, I think that will work for me. I did find a few JavaScripts that let users view 3d models, but I couldn't get it to texture the model. I'm not a JavaScript programmer. Thanks.
