Another SL presentation tool: Slide Wheel

Written by Peter R. Bloomfield | Saturday, 14 November 2009 00:01 | 0 comments
My supervisor (Daniel) and I were giving a SLOODLE presentation at a conference in Second Life today. When we were discussing it earlier this week, Daniel suggested a really novel way of presenting the slides... and since I'm never one to back down from a programming challenge, I built it!

The result is the Slide Wheel. All the slides in your presentation are displayed in a big wheel in mid-air. When you want to show a particular slide, the whole wheel rotates, and the current slide jumps to the foreground. I'll upload a video of it soon, but for now, here's a screenshot:

You can get this item free on XStreetSL, as I am releasing it open source. I am sorry it is not perfect yet, but the requests for me to make it available tell me it's in high demand! Please give it a try, and contact me if you have any questions or if you find any bugs.
