like i said, it is broken but still fun to see - the
box stack done over the web in 3DML (an XML based 3D
format that i invented a few years back - works like
HTML!)

here is what you do:

- go to http://www.flatland.com and download the
latest release of Flatland Rover (3.4), it is
shareware but it does not stop working, it just nags
you after 30 days

- download http://www.flatland.com/beta/NPRover.dll

- replace the copy of this DLL in the Program
Files/Flatland folder

- now go to this URL in your IE
http://www.flatland.com/beta/examples3.5/boxes.3dml

this will fire up the Rover plugin and show you the
physics demo - just click on the sides of the grey
block on the floor to add more falling blocks (as you
can see i get that spinning effect and vibration that
i dont know how to stop)

inside Rover (which you can run from the desktop icon
as well) you can View Source to see what 3DML looks
like - it very easy to save the file and modify it to
look different

all help for that jitter and spin problem greatfully accepted
