VNet

VNet - Turns a single-user VRML world into a multi-user environment

VNet uses Java to turn a single-user VRML world into a Multi-user Online Virtual Environment System (MOVES), complete with avatars and chat. A normal Web browser with a normal VRML plugin is all you need to experience a 3D social space. VNet is based on JDK 1.02 to ensure portability and in development is a version based on JDK 1.1.x that adds user persistence, scalability, and other features. It has both client and server packages.
