Ditch Flux Viewer.
Flux Studio is good, the plugin is an incomplete unstable
mess with a lot of vrml/x3d content. Except of course
anything made with Flux Studio itself. The developers are
working on the plugin slowly, but its also opensourse if
people want to have a go fixing something.
99% of what comes out of Flux Studio either works in BS
Contact, or works with minor changes.

browser I started
with. It can't load the ROL world as-built and the
individual models load
with odd differences that are too numerous to get into
here.
We have a ways to go in cross-platform compatibility.
So my paranoia about changing tools and standards in the
middle of a project
is proven correct. I'm not dissing Flux or Flux Studio.
I think if one
starts a project with these tools, one gets fine results
from what I could
see by inspection of the native models at the site. But
upward
compatibility from pre-existing models is still a 70%
kind of affair and
with the amount of work that last 30% is spread across a
complex world, it
is unacceptable at this time.
ROL remains firmly VRML97 and BS Contact 7.0.
Rats!
