4.0 out of 5 stars Great Introduction to VR!, February 18, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Virtual Reality Madness 1996 (Paperback)

This book was my first true adventure into making VR a reality on my PC.
It contains a lot of information on gadgets available, concepts of gaming/applications, and the CD's are loaded.

4.0 out of 5 stars The best book to read to start learning VR, June 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Virtual Reality Madness 1996 (Paperback)

There is no better way to start learning about VR than starting with this book. Ron Wodaski provides great tutorials for using great VR software such as Virtus Walkthrough and Vistapro, both of which are included on the CDs. Also included are chapters dedicated to the big, expensive 3d rendering program, 3D Studio(not included). Possibly the best part about VR Madness '96 is that it comes with 3 CD's loaded with VR apps, utilities, and games.
