Fort Project Wins Second Place

Inside the stockade at Fort NecessityMy personal art project Frontier Forts: Fort Necessity won second place in the first annual Collada Contest. This 3d, historically-faithful recreation of Fort Necessity National Battlefield in Farmington, Pennsylvania is targeted at real-time delivery for projects in game engines, virtual worlds, and Flash 3d.

Entering the Collada Contest provided me with a goal to speed up the progress on my Frontier Forts project. The next revision is planned for the end of the summer, when an interactive walk-through will be made available.

Educators are encouraged to contact Gary for more information.
