What is Virtual Seattle 99?

Unique screen saver featuring a 3-D rendered city of Seattle. Besides being a screen saver, Virtual Seattle 99 is an interactive experience with moving vehicles and city noises. Users can tour the city, select hot spots, and read about the sites and history of Seattle.

The disc image contains both Mac and PC compatible versions of Virtual Seattle 99.

Hold on to your lattes, everybody, and get ready to take a ride on the Virtual Side! What started out in 1997 as a cute little screen saver has grown into a feature-rich interactive map and screen saver of the beautiful Emerald City.

Virtual Seattle 1999 features a 3-D model of Seattle's downtown and waterfront areas, bustling with cars, airplanes, and ferries. Each of the nine full-screen views are brimming with realistic sounds and animations. As it protects your computer's monitor from phosphor burn-in, this charming and humorous look at your favorite city will entertain you for hours and hours.

What's new in the 1999 Edition? How about more maps of downtown Seattle than ever before? How about the Kingdome - before, during and after the big remodel. Or maybe Husky Stadium is more your style - if so, zip on over to the brand new map of the University of Washington.

But VS-99 isn't just about new maps. It's also packed with incredible new music, sounds and special effects. Give a listen to the bonus track from Seattle band, Ripple. What's more, VS-99 includes a new and improved Interactive Mode. Now you've got faster and easier access to loads of history and information about the city. And let's not forget about the ever-popular Screen Saver Mode. Like fine wines and Warren Moon, Virtual Seattle just gets better with age.
