WebGL Chrome Experiments the FAIL IN FIREFOX

Note: Using a year-old MacBook Pro with the latest version of Firefox installed

Build with Chrome  was able to work in firefox but it was significantly slower and lagger than when used in Chrome. The map rendering took forever and building was a nightmare that took far too long.

All of the game (not visualizations/3D experience) experiments seemed to work fine with my machine in Firefox.


Meel didn't work, it simply wouldn't display anything. The application launched without any problems though.



SoundViz at first completely crashed my computer when trying to launch, then after I restarted, the application opened with he following error:


Aside from these two major failures, and the lag that made Build with Chrome almost unusable, the rest of the Chrome experiments posted by classmates seemed to work well. Some were lagger than others, but all worked in some capacity.



This is an exercise from the Immersive Education course that I am taking at Boston College. The course is called Discovering Computer Graphics. For details, visit the immersive BC portal at http://ImmersiveEducation.org/@/bc
