Panda3D (http://panda3d.org/) is an Open Source "3D engine" -- software that lets you model a "world", and then render it in real-time on a graphics display. Think "Doom" or "Half-Life". It was originally developed by Disney for their massively multi-player online game, Toontown, so it's got real capabilities. They released it as Free Software in 2002. Carnegie Mellon University and Disney now manage the project jointly. The project emphasizes "a short learning curve and rapid development". Panda3D supports the C++ and Python languages, runs on Linux and Windows, and comes with models and artwork to get you started. There is also a library of documentation, sample code, and full projects online, along with what appears to be a reasonably active web forum. | |||||||
