G3DViewer : A 3D file viewer for GTK+ supporting a variety of file types

G3DViewer is a 3D file viewer for GTK+ supporting a variety of file types:

• 3D Studio (.3ds, .prj)
• LightWave (.lw, .lwb, .lwo)
• Alias Wavefront (.obj)
• Impulse TurboSilver / Imagine (.iob)
• AutoCAD (.dxf)
• Quake II Models (.md2)
• Quake III Models (.md3)
• Neutral File Format (.nff)
• 3D Metafile (.3dmf, .3mf, .b3d)
• Caligari TrueSpace Objects (.cob)
• Quick3D Objects & Scenes (.q3o, q3s)
• VRML 1.0 files (.wrl, .vrml)
• AC3D objects (.ac, .acc)
• LeoCAD Models (.lcd)
• Racer car models (.ar, .dof)
• Ultimate Stunts car models (.glb)
• VDrift car models (.joe, .car)
• COLLADA & G**gle Earth (.dae, .kmz) (new in libg3d 0.0.7)
• LDraw (.dat, .mpd) (new in libg3d 0.0.7)
• ASCII Scene Exporter (.ase) (new in libg3d 0.0.7)

[ Some of the features ]

• Wireframe mode
• Texture support (new in 0.1.99.1)
• Specular lighting (not really nice at the moment)
• changeable background color

[ Requirements ]

• One of the following combinations:
  • GTK+ 2.x and GtkGLExt 1.0 (recommended)
  • GTK+ 2.x and GtkGLArea 2.0 (1.99)
  • GTK+ 1.2 and GtkGLArea 1.x

  Support for Gtk+ 1.2 and for GtkGLArea will probably be removed in the next major version (0.3.0). This already includes the preview releases 0.2.99.x. These versions also require libglade >= 2.4.0.

• an OpenGL implementation, e.g. MesaGL: http://www.mesa3d.org
  Hardware 3D acceleration is of course better and supported, but not necessary. At the moment I do most development on a slow machine without hardware acceleration.

[ Disclaimer ]

All import plugins are not perfect and there are at least some files known not to work.
