VRML format, general information

Tools: Export to VRML, DAE, KMZ, 3DS, U3D

VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language) is a language used to describe virtual 3D worlds. You can save scenes (with images and surface properties) created in Allplan as VRML 2.0 files – comparable with the Allplan movie format.

Note: The VRML format has been developed as a 3D standard for the internet. Priority is given to the representation of virtual reality within a web browser in real time. The VRML format can also be used for rapid prototyping. Color models can be created in this format, because colors and textures are integrated. However, VRML is not created or read correctly by all systems.

To view VRML files you need a VRML browser. You can find up-to-date information on the internet. See the FAQs provided by Technical Support. Select this link and search for VRML:

The VRML format can be processed by various rendering applications (for example, CINEMA 4D). This format is also used to transfer data to a new generation of chromophore, film-forming 3D printers. So, you can create color, true-to-scale models straight from the animation viewport.

Tip: You can also import files in *.wrl format to Allplan by dragging them from File Explorer.
