Projects

Blender

Blender is a 3D animation and compositing suite with tools for modeling (advanced subdivision modeling, multiresolution sculpting), uv unwrapping, texturing (procedural node, 2D and 3D painting), animation, rendering, particles and simulation (including fluid dynamics, hard body physics, cloth and ... [More] hair), post-production with node based compositing and non linear editing, integrated game engine (with graphical programming, vehicle and rag doll constraints) and python scripting including an import and export suite. Blender runs on all major operating systems including Windows, OS X, Linux and BSD's. It has sculpting similar to ZBrush©, is a full animation suite similar to Maya© or 3DS Max© ; has compositing comparable to Nuke, camera tracking, object tracking and full video editing [Less]

Mesa

Mesa is an open-source implementation of the OpenGL specification - a system for rendering interactive 3D graphics. A variety of device drivers allows Mesa to be used in many different environments ranging from software emulation to complete hardware acceleration for modern GPUs. Mesa ties ... [More] into several other open-source projects: the Direct Rendering Infrastructure and X.org to provide OpenGL support to users of X on Linux, FreeBSD and other operating systems. [Less]

LiVES

LiVES mixes realtime video performance and non-linear editing in one application. It will let you start editing and making video right away, without having to worry about formats, frame sizes, or framerates. It is a very flexible tool which can be used by both VJ's and video editors – mix and ... [More] switch clips from the keyboard, trim and edit your clips, and bring them together using the multitrack timeline. [Less]

LuxRender

LuxRender is a free software rendering system for photo-realistic and physicaly unbiased image synthesis. It is written in C++ and built around PBRT, providing a flexible ray tracing core and an extensible object-oriented design. Our goal is to extend PBRT into a complete renderer for artistic ... [More] use, including : - Flexible multi-threading of integrators - GUI with real time tonemapping controls, renderer configuration dialogs, etc... - Robust scene file format and API, exporters for Blender and other 3D packages - Speed optimisations with SSE/SIMD implementation - Semi-programmabe shading/materials & GUI material editor(s) - Physical sky/daylight model - etc...

Python-Ogre

Python-Ogre is a high-performance, full-featured Python interface to the Ogre3D graphics library. Python-Ogre currently supports all the functionality of Ogre 1.4, as well as wrappers for over 30 individual libraries: * Bullet, NxOgre (PhysX), ODE, and Newton physics * 4 GUIs, I/O, sound, and a ... [More] lot more! This project is the successor of the original PyOgre project, created by Lakin Wecker in mid-2006. Much development is done on the Windows platform, however today Python-Ogre runs equally well on Linux and Mac OS X. Windows binaries are available, and a Linux package is in the works. If you wish to create a gaming or graphics application in Python, there isn't any else you need apart from Python-Ogre. If there is a library you'd like to have wrapped, let us know! [Less]

Ardor3D

Ardor3D is a professionally oriented, Java based 3D graphics engine.

Yaf(a)Ray

YafRay is a powerful raytracer, under the LGPL license. It enables you to create fantastic images and animations of a photorealistic quality.

Moonlight|3D

Moonlight|3D is a free modern, flexible and extensible modelling and animation tool developed by a small but dedicated team. The goal is to provide a tool that is capable of turning even the most advanced and challenging projects of artists and technical artists into reality. We understand that ... [More] this project is by its very nature a huge undertaking. We have chosen to make clean design, good usability and solid implementation of features our highest priority goals and we have already successfully, albeit slowly, pursued that road for several years. In order to speed up the progress of our development efforts we open up the project to the general public and we hope to attract the support of many developers and users, bringing the project forward faster.
