Free 3d models software for linux

Vertex 3D Model Assembler project is a polygon-based live-end modeller.

The Vertex 3D Model Assembler is a 3D modeller geared towards making high performance models for games and other live-end requirements.

It uses the V3D format to maximize efficiency with OpenGL rendering, and can view/edit any V3D hybrid data.

Misfit Model 3D is an OpenGL-based 3D model editor that works with triangle-based models. Misfit Model 3D supports multi-level undo, skeletal animations, simple texturing, scripting, command-line batch processing, and a plugin system for adding new model and image filters.
Complete online help is included. It is designed to be easy to use and easy to extend with plugins and scripts.
Misfit Model 3D was written and tested on Linux (2.4 and 2.6 kernels) and has been compiled and tested on most major Linux distributions.
It is not endian-safe so it is unlikely to run on non-x86 hardware platforms--this will probably not change soon unless I get requests for a version thats usable on big-endian archs.
Enhancements:
- The menus have been re-organized. There is a new command to make normals face outward. The texture coordinate window now has a rotate tool. Material support for COB has been improved. Many animation bugs have been fixed. A "File | Export" command has been added to indicate which formats have less reliable write support.

3D Python OpenGL Chess Game project is a 3D chess game in Python with OpenGL.

3D Python OpenGL Chess Game is a normal chess game that has no computer player (yet). You can play against a friend on your PC.

JSBSim Flight Dynamics Model is an open source flight dynamics model (FDM) that compiles and runs under many operating systems, including Linux, Apple Macintosh, Microsoft Windows, Linux, IRIX, Cygwin (Unix on Windows), etc.
The FDM is essentially the physics/math model that defines the movement of an aircraft under the forces and moments applied to it using the various control mechanisms and from the forces of nature.
JSBSim has no native graphics. It can be run by itself as a standalone program, taking input from a script file and various aircraft configuration files; or, it can be run as an integrated part of a larger flight simulator implementation that includes a visual system.
The most notable example of the use of JSBSim is currently seen in the open source FlightGear simulator. JSBSim models the aerodynamic forces and moments by the classic coefficient buildup method.
JSBSim has seen the growth of a fairly large user base, with some of the more notable projects (of which I am aware) described on the Users page.
Main features:
- Fully configurable flight control system, aerodynamics, propulsion, landing gear arrangement, etc. through XML-based text file format.
- Rotational earth effects on the equations of motion (coriolis and centrifugal acceleration modeled).
- Configurable data output formats to screen, file, socket, or any combination of those.
Enhancements:
- This release includes new options for the standalone JSBSim executable, including improved real-time capability.
- This release also includes experimental (but tested) logic to reduce ground reactions jitter while on the ground.

QML (Quantity Modeling Language) is a "thing"-based language for scientific and mathematical data modeling.
Each "thing" is a quantity which may be associated with either a structure or physical phenomena.
Quantities, in turn, may hold other Quantities or values (numbers or strings). Higher-level data models, which associate or define meanings to various quantities (such as velocity or position), can be built from QML quantities.
The higher-level data model (XML) schema that inherits from QML may be understood, and its instance documents may be parsed into QML documents and objects by the QMLReader.
Enhancements:
- This release adds partial Xerces2 DOM support, and works with Java 1.4 and Java 1.5 (no JAXP DocumentBuilder/Factory support currently).
- The test procedure is a little less chatty.
- Support has been added for testing either/both Crimson/Xerces DOM support.
- (Note: Crimson support only works with Java 1.4, as Java 1.5 interfaces have DOM lvl 2 and 3, which crimson doesnt support).
- This release adds compilerargs, and better build support for different configurations to build.xml.

Mill 3D is a nine mens morris game, based on classical board game. You can play against the computer, or a human player, in a nice 3D environment. The computer has three difficulty level, it is quite smart.
Main features:
- Play against your friend
- Play against the computer, choose from the 3 difficulty levels
- Sophisticated 3D enviroment
- Runs under Linux and Windows

K-3D is the free-as-in-freedom 3D modeling, animation, and rendering system for GNU / Linux, Posix, and Win32 operating systems. K-3D features a robust, object-oriented plugin architecture, designed to scale to the needs of professional artists, and is designed from-the-ground-up to generate motion-picture-quality animation using RenderMan-compliant render engines. We strongly recommend the Aqsis render engine for use with K-3D.
K-3Ds innovative interactive tutorial system will introduce you to basic use of the program. New tutorials can easily be recorded and shared with the rest of the community.
K-3D allows you to create and edit documents in multiple realtime OpenGL solid, shaded, texture-mapped views. You can even model, animate, and interact with animations while they play back for maximum productivity!
Main features:
- Camera: pan/tilt, zoom, dolly, modeling and tripod modes.
- Viewing Modes: Detailed selection of visible features.
- Hide / unhide geometry.
- Powerful scene graph procedual modeling with complete modeling history.
- Selection: Objects, meshes, faces, edges, patched, curves, point groups, point.
- Geometry types: Polygon, NURBS, subdivision, blobby.
- 3D Primitives: Cone, circle, cushion, cylinder, disk, grid, paraboloid, polyhedon, sphere, torus.
- Boolean modeling operations.
- Text: FreeType? support.
- Instantiation: Create duplicates without adding gemometry to the scene.
- Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) allows arbitrary dataflow - any object property can be connected to any other compatible property.
- Animate any value.
- Unlimited number of animation channels.
- Bezier curve channels.
- Animate modeling operations.
- Textures with 16-bit float bitdepth.

- BMP (requires optional ImageMagick? plugin).
- SUN (requires optional ImageMagick? plugin).
Enhancements:
- This release features major changes to the internal file-handling code to work correctly with files containing non-ASCII characters.
- Due to the sweeping changes needed to make this possible, this version is considered a "development" release, so users are encouraged to use this release for testing and feedback only.
- All users are strongly encouraged to upgrade to the 0.6 series of K-3D for its completely rewritten user interface, many new features, and significantly improved stability over 0.4.
