I was wondering if there are screen savers that show planes doing 3D?

Thanks
Smokey

That is a good idea!

Some one must have one or at least make one!!!
I would want one!

sounds good, but no using those GIF animations we all see just floating around the screen

I think that there has been something like this on DOD.

If you have Windows XP, most versions have a function in the screen saver that allow you to run a 'slideshow' from a file on your computer as the screensaver. The option is called 'My Pictures Slideshow' in the drop down menu. I used this function and built a folder on my work computer that includes all the best 3D pics I have taken over the past couple of years.... Some of the pics freak my coworkers out..... : )

i can make a slide show of still shots, but the progrma wont make it into a screensaver. i look into it

There is a "powertoys" download that allows you to play a video or group of videos as a screensaver. Go to a search engine and type in "powertoys download." you should find a few. Watch out, if you choose the screensaver without configuring it first, you will have all videos on your computer playing back to back, including those "personal" ones.

You can go to webshots.com and download their software. This will allow you to create your own collections this has worked great for me.

i've got Webshots, full of pics of planes i like and tons of pics of me and my GF from the past few years, leave the PC go 10 mins and up the memorys pop.

great program, but it's still not a propper screensaver that has some animated plane doing random stuff.

great pics on the Webshots site tho!!

After reading this forum a few hours ago I went and downloaded the webshots and it only took about 15 mins with my dial-up. I took a folder of pics and put it in there and created a screensaver slideshow in about 5 mins. I love it.
Thanks,

now go have a look at some of the sites pics, lots of planes, and the storms, wow, my backdrop is lighting at an airport

Can somebody send me a copy of the screensaver you have made.
I dont really have a collection to put together...well not yet.

Smokey

you use pics on your hardrive. you can download those anywhere.

just find a link to one and put it on here

if some one could teach me 3d modeling (on the computer) i might be able to do it

ok i finished a cessena using rudder to get into a hover how so i put animations on here?
what i need now is a wingtip view of a plane

Hello, I've been out of flying for 15 years and am starting with my son on an Eagle trainer. There's this new term called 3D I never heard of before. What is it? Ralph

3D is aerobatics in the stall, harriers, harrier rolls, elevators, torque rolls, walls are all stalled manuvers

go to 3drc.info and look at the explaination there, theirs is a lot better lol

I'm wondering if it is possible to use a recorded flight done with the Reflex XTR simulator, as a screen saver. If so, then you could record your own 3D flights and use them as the screen saver. Im looking for a good RC Screen saver as well, and I have done some recordings using the XTR Simulator. They are great to sit a watch and would be even better if they just started on their own as a screen saver.
