[x3d-public] Question VR Cafe + X3D

[cbullard at hiwaay.net]

What are the licensing costs for BS CONTACT  these days.   I looked it  
up on the site and it seemed rather expensive for a client side  
system.  I have a copy for one machine, but I need another minus the  
logo for my
streaming machine as I am mixing my VR into my OBS livestreams.

An OBS to BCSContact interface can be useful, for example, exposing  
the world cameras to the OBS client GUI and enabling the OBS user to  
specify a  camera to use On Open.
