ShareCG, Altadyn Partner For Virtual-World Development Platform and Content Library

Digital art community ShareCG.com and 3D software developer Altadyn have partnered to provide game developers, graphic artists, and animation enthusiasts tools to develop and share their virtual worlds online.

The partnership will allow users to create and populate virtual worlds with Altadyn’s Java-based 3DXplorer software and ShareCG’s library of user-contributed 3D models, artwork, textures, and other resources. These 3D environments have a variety of possible applications: real estate walk-through tours, online meetings, virtual tradeshows, and games.

Once a user has customized a virtual world, the creation can be posted onto ShareCG, where hundreds of thousands of visitors can explore and rate the world through their browsers.

Said Altadyn CEO Darius Lahoutifard, “ShareCG’s fast growing community is a valuable source of content for all 3DXPlorer users who can build unique Virtual Worlds and 3D websites by incorporating a variety of creative 3D models as well as other computer graphics elements available on ShareCG.com.”
