Open Source BSD 3D Rendering Software

The OpenGL Extension Wrangler Library is a simple tool that helps C/C++ developers initialize extensions and write portable applications. GLEW currently supports a variety of operating systems, including Windows, Linux, Darwin, Irix, and Solaris.

GLFW is an Open Source, multi-platform library for OpenGL, OpenGL ES and Vulkan development on the desktop. It provides a simple API for creating windows, contexts and surfaces, receiving input and events.

The Irrlicht Engine is an open source high performance realtime 3D engine written and usable in C++. It is completely cross-platform, using D3D, OpenGL and its own software renderers.

An implementation of the OpenGL API.

GtkGLExt is an OpenGL extension to GTK+. It provides additional GDK objects which support OpenGL rendering in GTK+, and GtkWidget API add-ons to make GTK+ widgets OpenGL-capable.

Togl provides a platform independent Tk widget for using OpenGL rendering contexts.

Crystal Space is an Open Source 3D SDK for Unix, Windows, and MacOS/X. It renders with OpenGL and features GLSL shaders, CG shaders, deferred rendering, dynamic shadows, bullet based physics library, terrain engine, skeleton based animation meshes, exporter for Blender, portals, etc...

The Chemistry Development Kit (CDK) is a scientific, LGPL-ed library for bio- and cheminformatics and computational chemistry written in Java. The main home page of the CDK is now at: http://cdk.github.io

QuesoGLC is a free implementation of the OpenGL Character Renderer. QuesoGLC is based on the FreeType library, provides Unicode support, and is designed to be easily ported to any platform that supports both FreeType and the OpenGL API.

The Perl OpenGL 2 module provides bindings to the modern OpenGL APIs for use from the perl language.

PoJamas aims to provide a Python and tools for loading, processing, and producing .cr2, pz3 (crz, pzz) files compatible with the SmithMicro (e-frontier) Poser character animation application. PoJamas is composed of: - Python library - Python Wavefront (.obj) 3D viewer based on GLFW - LibreOffice/Python Application (to ease the library and the viewer usage) As of 2020, the project is ported in Python3 As of 2021 this project proposes a 3D viewer for Wavefront files (pypos3dv) PyPosPosLO v0.15 (and above) provides the means to easily create Poser Mechanical Character. Results can be seen here: https://sharecg.com/v/94509/view/11/Poser/Hawker-Tempest-Character-v2

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.

Tcl3D offers the 3D functionality of OpenGL and other 3D libraries at the Tcl scripting level.

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...).

GLSLmath provides C++ math operations as defined by GLSL. For example, it provides methods to easily setup viewing transformations and perspective projections. GLSLmath has been inspired by the glm and slmath libraries, which aim to mimic GLSL, but in contrast to those GLSLmath does not focus on a complete conforming implementation of GLSL. It rather aims to provide a convenient single header file that implements the most commonly used subset of GLSL so that it is easy to use for rapid prototyping and GLSL teaching purposes. It is used at the Georg-Simon Ohm University of Applied Sciences in Nuremberg for teaching computer graphics courses.

This Eclipse plugin help you to create, edit and verify your GLSL (OpenGL Shading Language) and NVidia CG vertex and pixel shaders directly inside the Eclipse IDE. Each shader can be edit in an editor with syntax color with error/warning markers.

Bad Camel Gaming is a collection of arcade games build on the Oasis Framework, the Bad Camel Gaming game framework.

This project has moved to RubyForge; please visit http://www.fxruby.org for more information.

Icarus Scene Engine is a cross-platform, CLS-compliant 3D framework, integrating open source APIs into a cohesive all-open-source, all .NET solution. For Windows, MacOSX & Linux. Uses OpenTK, OpenGL, OpenAL APIs for graphics and audio. Runs on Mono/.NET. Links to FFMpeg for streaming video, and FreeType as a temporary conversion mod to bring fonts into a native XML format. Binary builds of Icarus will be infrequent, roughly every 18 months or so, the GIT code updates regularly on a weekly or twice-weekly basis (or faster if there are urgent issues).

OpenGI is a platform-independent C-library for parameterizing triangular meshes and creating Geometry Images from this parameterization.

VR Juggler is a virtual platform for virtual reality application development created at the Virtual Reality Applications Center at Iowa State University. Applications developed in VR Juggler can transparently move between a wide range of VR systems.

The Zenipex Library is a game development framework, created with the goal of allowing someone with some knowledge of C++ to create 3D games for platforms including Windows, MacOS X, and Linux. OpenGL and Direct3D 9 are both supported.

sjgui is a gui framework for use in interactive OpenGL applications. The main goal is to provide very easy and fast way to develop portable interactive interfaces, using object-oriented approach. It is easily extendable to suit your needs and is platform

SPE is a python IDE with auto indentation&completion,call tips,syntax coloring&highlighting,uml viewer,class explorer,source index,todo list,pycrust shell,file browsers,drag&drop,Blender support.Spe ships with wxGlade,PyChecker and Kiki.
