This version also adds improved VRML support, new frames per second monitor, new world archives, enhanced performance, and improved stability. The lights are rendered as alpha blended spheres kinda like the 'health pickups' in Quake3. TreadMarks Test 2 is online for multi-plyer gaming. TreadMarks uses OpenGL hardware acceleration. Functionality and parts of simulations can easily be reused in other models.
Simulations can occur on a local or national scale.
Uses for the software include reducing congestion, increasing traffic flow, and providing best-possible solutions for infrastructure developments for airports. The TAAM Viewer playback tool uses OpenGL for rendering and acceleration. Alchemist solves the problem of how to produce 3D recesses cut into foam, for storing tools and objects. . Using the Magician OpenGL for Java implementation, Alchemist allows non-technical users to quickly assemble foam layout in 2D from customized parts catalogues. Terranim produces script files that render a movie in Terragen.
