I think the Alamo facade at the Bob Bullock Museum here in Austin has something along this line Steve. It was nothing too spectacular, just cannon fire and people yelling. They also had a virtual hurricane for the Galveston disaster. The numerous historical artifacts and various displays were much more impressive as I remember my last visit.

Must admit I wasn't thinking of the 'touristy' type....something more like being inside Mark's book!!?....So you can wander around at home !........seen something similiar done for parts of Victorian London on a Whitechapel Murders site. Steve

There was a pretty good attempt on the "Alamo - Victory or Death" multimedia CD-ROM from 1995 by archimedia interactive. - But I agree it would be really something to take Mark's images and be able to flow through them
- It would be a killer IPAD app!

Absolutely amazing video -- and very tastefully done. I love the music treatment. I had seen your VR model and refer to it all the time, overlaying the satelite view in 3D, but I had not seen the video. Outstanding achievement.
Can't wait to see Bexar.

Wow! Great graphics, design and music JR. The Spanish architects could have used your help a few hundred years ago.

Thank you. I've learned a lot since putting out the video and found some new tools that should up the quality considerably.

I passed the video link on to Michael Corenblith who responded immediately, saying: Most impressive, please pass along my praise for this project. Loved the superimposition to present day San Antonio, and found that to be a very powerful teaching tool.

Fantastic! I was also impressed with the superimposition of your "model" with present day SA. Very impressive indeed. Mike

The overlay was excellent. Michael has been very impressed with all the models, virtual and real. He loves how devoted we all are -- and, I think, happy that we do far more than build mashed potato mountains with the obsession.

When ricgtt referenced the mashed potato mountains, was he alluding to Close Encounters? I find it hard to keep up with you guys when it comes to Alamo topography and strategy, but once you veer off into unrelated trivia, I find I can hold my own. At least sometimes. BTW, I loved JR's video too. Jesse Waldinger

The video is amazing! Great to finally see what I had in my mind's eye while standing in those present-day locations. -- Now I want to see the whole town!
