PlasticPlanet 3D Technology
3D Render Engine
Is based on OpenGL and uses parts of the Fly3D game engine. The engine is plugin-able, in the meaning that functionality of the browser can be expanded by additional libraries.

3D Web Interface for your 2D Browser (optional)
Allows you to implement your own 3D scene into your common flat webpages as a multiuser world.

3D File Formats
The render engine uses its own fileformats. Converters and 'builder-programs' are available. Currently scenes, models and avatars can be exported through plugins from 3D Studio Max 3.x and 4.x. Quake3 'pk3' files can be converted. It's is planned to support Caligari trueSpace 'cob',  Renderware 'rwx' and Milkshape3D 'ms3d' models directly without translation.

Program architecture
The software, client browser as well as world servers, are modular structured. Plugins allow the advanced 3D content developer a maximum of flexibility, even in building online games such as chat-based or actor based games. The brilliant 3D quality and flexibility allows you architectual show-cases and walk-throughs.
Through the most flexible interfaces the software can be used for any educational  purpose, eg for e-learning.
