Intervista's WorldView (http://www.intervista.com/) and Holger Grahn's
GLViewX (http://www.glview.com/) both use Direct3D.

Liquid Reality will support Direct 3D soon.

My question is will these browers work with the 3DFX based boards:
The Diamond Monster 3D or The Orchid.

I understand these cards only work full screen so will that preclude
using them for VRML browsers ?

A lot of this depends on the d3d drivers for these boards.  If they
write good drivers that:
        set software rendering mode when not in fullscreen
and
        set hardware acceleration mode when in fullscreen

then the d3d browsers should transparently support these cards to the
fullest extent possible.  Otherwise everyone's browser implementations
will have to be hardcoded with the particular cases when hardware
acceleration is available and when it isn't and turn on these modes
accordingly.
