Other than Tricaster doesnt do = 3d virtual sets that his client want to use, it only does a nodal pan on = a static image of a studio setup. Or at least that is the only way to do = it in the Tricaster we have for small live web = productions

There are other live solutions that = does real 3d studios, with realtime tracking of camera, but they are all = very expensive as far as i know.

...regarding = the slow nonrealtime AE solution... Element3d does import .obj, but you = wont get any material setup for you automatic this way, you have to = reshade the whole setup.
