RE: [Virtools] Flickering \ Shearing

Hi,
You should adjust you camera near and far clipping planes (camera
settings), so that your zBuffer has enough precision per unit to deal
with object close together.
(Set the 'far clipping plane' distance as small as you can, and set the
'near clipping plane' distance as big as you can, so that the active
zone is small enough).
Zbuffer precision can depend on the driver you use : maybe your web
player has different display config from DEV.
(Anyway, if you objects are exactly on the same place, you will always
have troubles)
