Hi,
Ive been using the vrml models given with the VRTrack files. I tried to
download and use some other models. I tried using some other .wrl files
but on running there is an error and cannot load message comes up.

Two things I noticed on opening the .wrl files is that all the models
given to us have 2 files associated with them - ie one seems to do some
rotation, translation etc to the object another longer file. It is the
shorter file that we are loading on the mxrMediaRead. I tried making a
similar transformation file for the downloaded models but that didnt
work - maybe i did something wrong there.

Another thing is that the given files have a header #VRML V2.0 utf8
while the what i have been able to download is #VRML V1.0 ascii. Is
this why i cant load the downloaded models? Any advice?
thanks
Nivetha

The MXRToolkit support VRML2.0, so if the model you download is version
1.0, you need convert it, There is a software (vrml1to2)can do this,
you can search online to look for it.
