Open Source C 3D Modeling Software

BRL-CAD is a powerful cross-platform constructive solid geometry solid modeling system that includes an interactive geometry editor, ray-tracing for rendering & geometric analyses, network distributed framebuffer support, image & signal-processing tools.

Importer library to import assets from different common 3D file formats such as Collada, Blend, Obj, X, 3DS, LWO, MD5, MD2, MD3, MDL, MS3D and a lot of other formats. The data is stored in an own in-memory data-format, which can be easily processed. www.open3mod.com/ is a 3D model viewer and exporter based on Assimp that is also Open Source.

OpenCTM is a file format, a software library and a tool set for compression of 3D triangle meshes. The geometry is compressed to a fraction of comparable file formats (3DS, STL, COLLADA...), and the format is accessible through a simple, portable API

GTS provides a set of useful functions to deal with 3D surfaces meshed with interconnected triangles including collision detection, multiresolution models, constrained Delaunay triangulations and robust set operations (union, intersection, differences).

The Open-Source PyMOL repository has been moved to github: https://github.com/schrodinger/pymol-open-source We still use the pymol-users mailing list here on sourceforge. Please subscribe for community support: https://pymol.org/maillist (Note: SourceForge email newsletter and special offers are optional and can be unchecked) The PyMOL community wiki has its own home: https://pymolwiki.org/

Highly optimized 2D|3D math library, also known as OpenGL Mathematics (glm) for `C`. cglm provides lot of utils to help math operations to be fast and quick to write. It is community-friendly, feel free to bring any issues, bugs you faced. Almost all functions (inline versions) and parameters are documented inside the corresponding headers. OpenGL-related functions are dropped to make this lib platform/third-party independent. Make sure you have the latest version and feel free to report bugs, troubles. Euler angles was implemented in reverse order (extrinsic) it was fixed, now they are intrinsic. Make sure that you have the latest version. vec4 and mat4 variables must be aligned. (There will be unaligned versions later). cglm doesn't alloc any memory on heap. So it doesn't provide any allocator. You should alloc memory for out parameters too if you pass pointer of memory location.

Virtual Lego building for the Macintosh.

DeepMind Lab is a 3D learning environment based on id Software's Quake III Arena via ioquake3 and other open source software. DeepMind Lab provides a suite of challenging 3D navigation and puzzle-solving tasks for learning agents. Its primary purpose is to act as a testbed for research in artificial intelligence, especially deep reinforcement learning. If you use DeepMind Lab in your research and would like to cite the DeepMind Lab environment, we suggest you cite the DeepMind Lab paper. To enable compiler optimizations, pass the flag --compilation_mode=opt, or -c opt for short, to each bazel build, bazel test and bazel run command. The flag is omitted from the examples here for brevity, but it should be used for real training and evaluation where performance matters. DeepMind Lab ships with an example random agent in python/random_agent.py which can be used as a starting point for implementing a learning agent.

This repository is now frozen. The latest version of the RepRap project can be found at https://github.com/reprap.

SaVi - simulate Starlink, Iridium, Globalstar, O3b, GPS, Galileo and other satellite constellations, modify them, or design your own. Requires Tcl/Tk and Unix libraries; 3D viewing option requires Geomview running on X Window.

Ayam is a free 3D modelling environment for the RenderMan interface.

GLE is a library of C functions that draw extruded surfaces, including surfaces of revolution, sweeps, tubes, polycones, polycylinders and helicoids. GLE uses the OpenGL(R) API to perform the actual rendering.

Geomorph is a height field generator and editor for Linux

Varkon is a very powerful parametric 2D/3D CAD, modeling and application development tool for engineering, design, architecture, etc. It does 2D drafting, 2D and 3D modeling, sculptured surface modeling, and even animations. See our website for details.

ACTC converts independent triangles into triangle strips or fans. You can approach a three times geometry speedup on OpenGL and Direct3D using these primitives.

GLOSS is a lightweight 3D modeler / animator / renderer for GNU/Linux or Windows platforms. GLOSS is programmed in C/GTK3.

High-level 3D graphics library. Supports retained and immediate mode rendering, an extensible file format, plug-in renderers, a wide range of high level geometries, hierarchical models, and a consistent and object-orientated API.

several vaguely related projects worked on by me: a 3d engine with a javascript-like scripting language (pdsys); an older scheme dialect (vmsys); ... (2009-04-28: I have been gone for years, may try to put up some newer stuff...).

CsGL is OpenGL for the .Net Framework, providing support for OpenGL 1.1 - 1.4 and numerous extensions.

A parametric, feature-based, sketch-driven 3D CAD application, built around a geometrical constraint solving engine. Project is in early development stage. The FreeSG library (http://freesg.org/) is required.

Device Independent Virtual Environment - Reconfigurable, Scalable, Extensible. A platform, device, and display independent API for developing 3D virtual environment (VE) applications. DIVERSE is comprised of DTK, DPF, DGL, and DADS.

Create 3D models easily in Win95,NT,XP,Vista,Win7 on all desktops, laptops and even netbooks without any 3D hardware acceleration. Supports 3DS, DXF, WRL, POV, ASC, spreadsheet & compressed files, extrude/sweep, mesh edit, parametric NURBS curves ...

The extremely popular coolpowers series of plugins and shaders for Caligari trueSpace is now an open community project. From cel shading to blurred reflections, from glowing effects to landscape generation, there is something here for everyone. Power up

Kludge3d is a simple 3d editor, in the spirit of Worldcraft or Milkshape. It is the offspring of several other (presumably abandoned) GTK-based editors, with the best features taken from each. As the name implies, kludge3d is exactly that - a kludge.

(Historical) PyAcad makes Python available as a scripting language to AutoCAD/IntelliCAD. A builtin module "ads" allows to access and control most aspects of AutoCAD/IntelliCAD from Python programs.
