Animations can be created in a loop modifying the scene and saving each screenshot to a file. Various graphics programs (e.g. ImageMagick) can put these together into a single animation. (See example below)
## Not run:
#
# create animation
#
shade3d(oh3d(), color="red")
rgl.viewpoint(0,20)
setwd(tempdir())
for (i in 1:45) {
rgl.viewpoint(i,20)
filename <- paste("pic",formatC(i,digits=1,flag="0"),".png",sep="")
rgl.snapshot(filename)
}
## Now run ImageMagick command:
## convert -delay 10 *.png -loop 0 pic.gif
## End(Not run)
