Some VRML showing Googelon playing battalion in the CAVE(tm).
There is also a virtual reality (stereo graphics, head-tracked) version of battalion that runs in the CAVE (tm) and on the Immersadesk(tm). This version was actually the first version of battalion to be publically shown, as the Indi-zone version did not appear until a couple months later.
As of fall 1999, the GL version of the CAVE version of battalion has been upgraded to OpenGL combining all of the features that were added into the OpenGL version of the game over the last 4 years. This version has also now been ported to the Linux and HP versions of the CAVE library, and has been run on a HP powered ImmersaDesk.

Early in 1996 I made the following VRML models. They may have some problems with the current crop of VRML 2 browsers.

The CAVE(tm) version of battalion made its first public appearance at the EVE4 art show on May 14th 1995.
