WebGL Meeting - chat with friends in 3D
- xal 14y agomy guess is that as soon as WebRTC becomes enabled by default projects based on it will dominate Hacker News for a year straight. The possibilities of this tech are incredible.
- TazeTSchnitzel 14y agoWebcam and Audio APIs are awesome. But the P2P stuff is even moreso. Unreliable data streams - brilliant for games. P2P networking - DHTs in the browser! Combined with Web Crypto, heck, who knows!
- songzme 14y agoI can't see my friend in the same room!
- azakai 14y agoSyntax error: return not in function on line 98.
- ndesaulniers 14y agoLine 98: if( hasWebGL === false || hasWebRTC === false ) return; But that line is not in the body of a function. What it looks like the author meant to do is have an if/else block to check if your current browser has WebGL AND WebRTC. http://caniuse.com/#search=webgl http://caniuse.com/#search=webgl http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebRTC#Browsers http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebRTC#Browsers
- jerome_etienne 14y agoim the author, and in fact it was because all that was in a funciton :) https://github.com/jeromeetienne/webglmeeting/issues/2 https://github.com/jeromeetienne/webglmeeting/issues/2
- WhatsACamelToe 14y agoIt's kinda sucky. Obviously the tech will get better in the coming months, but this is actally embarassingly bad!!
- icebraining 14y agoOh, man, this brings me back to 97/98 when people were saying that VRML based 3D chats were just around the corner ;) http://edition.cnn.com/TECH/9710/14/3.d.reality.lat/index.html http://edition.cnn.com/TECH/9710/14/3.d.reality.lat/index.ht...
- nnnnni 14y agoWow, OnLive has been around for a long time!
- idonthack 14y agoit seems to think my system doesn't support webgl, though i've used webgl demos before.
- MaggieL 14y agoGee, happened to see this post while attending a regular Sunday night hangout/dance in SecondLife.
- Kodit 14y agoNot working for me. Not able to see the other participant in the same room. Something special needs to be done?
