The rendering model of ARCHline.XP® 2006 makes a film in .avi format by sequencing rendered images. To create animation you need a path to be followed by the camera and you also have to define the target point in each point of the path.
Virtual reality
With the virtual reality tool of ARCHline.XP® 2006 the program creates a virtual reality out of the rendered image of the 3D model, having a *.mov format. Unlike the .avi format, this display tool creates an apparently still picture, where you can move with the mouse among the preset camera positions. You can activate the completed virtual reality with Quick Time Player, and then you can move the camera, or take a look around in the virtual model.
