Free gl software for linux

Scorched 3D project is a game based loosely (or actually quite heavily now) on the classic DOS game Scorched Earth "The Mother Of All Games". Scorched 3D adds amongst other new features a 3D island environment and LAN and internet play. Scorched 3D is totally free and is available for both Microsoft Windows and Unix (Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS X, Solaris etc.) operating systems.
You can pick up the game and begin playing very quickly. Then, when/if you are interested, you can poke in the dimmer recesses of the game and get into the strategy (or just ignore it altogether!).
At its lowest level, Scorched 3D is just an artillery game with two+ tanks taking turns to destroy opponents in an arena. Choose the angle, direction and power of each shot, launch your weapon, and try to blow up other tanks. Thats basically it.
But Scorched 3D can be a lot more complex than that, if you want it to be. You can earn money from successful battles and use it to invest in additional weapons and accessories. You can play with up to twenty four other players at a time, mixing computer players with humans.
Theres a variety of changing environmental conditions and terrains to be dealt with. After the end of each round (which ends when everybody dies or theres only one person left), you get to buy stuff using the prize money you won from previous matches.

GL-117 is an action flight simulator for Linux/Unix and MSWindows. Enter the Eagle Squadron and succeed in several challanging missions leading though different landscapes.
Five predefined levels of video quality and an amount of viewing ranges let you perfectly adjust the game to the performance of your system. Joystick, mouse, sound effects, music...
Enhancements:
- bugfix: crash at the beginning of mission desert
- bugfix: compile problems with gcc3.4
Options:
-dlevel
Set the debug level to level in [0..5]. 0 means quiet and will avoid any output, 1 will log fatal errors causing the program to crash on stderr, 2 will also print exceptions on stderr, 3 will add warnings on stdout, 4 prints additional information (predefined) on stdout, and 5 gives developer specific messages on stdout.
-h
Print a short summary on stdout and then quit immediately.
-v
Display the version number of gl-117 and then quit immediately.
Configuration:
gl-117 uses a predefined working directory ".gl-117" in the users home directory to load and store all savegame files and read the configuration files "conf" and "conf.interface". If there are no config files available, gl-117 will create them using standard settings. The contents of the files are quite self-explanatory.

Xtheater is a MPEG-1 player in GTK+ capable of playing MPEG-1 format streams from file, http, and VCD with seek capability.
Xtheater is a Media Player for linux capable of playing MPEG video and audio files, network streams, and VCDs, as well as AVI and ASF files. It accompishes this through the use of libaviplay and smpeg.
It tries to keep things simple and straightforward to provide the simplest, most stable behavior as possilbe, while at the same time offering a nice featureset.
Installation:
Installation of Xtheater is not the easiest install in the world. But it is also far from the hardest install. First you must install the following packages:
X11 - Required for everything. All modern *nix include this
Glib/GTK - Required for everything, 1.2.x
SDL - Required for everything, 1.2.x
SMPEG - Required for MP3/MPG/VCD playback, 0.4.3 or higher.
avifile - Required for AVI/ASF playback, from CVS repository
Avifile can be compiled without qt, so dont worry if you do not have qt, it will just not build some of the sample applications, sych as aviplay.
If you wish to install as much from binary packages, in general, the following package names will indicate binary packages of requirements listed above:
glib
glib-devel
gtk+
gtk+-devel
SDL
SDL-devel
smpeg
smpeg-devel
For AVI/ASF playback, you will have to get it from CVS, no binary packages are available. Note also that to get libaviplay to work properly it needs to be linked with libXxf86vm on some systems. do this by adding -lXxf86vm to the LIBS line of the lib/Makefile from the avifile tree.
After you have installed all prerequisite pacakges, you run ./configure. Before running configure, you may wish to read up on GL support. It can be enabled at this stage, but is not configured by default, for reasons explained in the GL section linked to previously.
After you have ran ./configure in the Xtheater directory to your liking, make install will put all the files in the right place. By default, the configuration is stored at /usr/local/Xtheater/config. the binary is placed at /usr/local/bin/xtheater, player plugins are in /usr/local/Xtheater/player/, and ui plugins are in /usr/local/Xtheater/ui/. None of this needs to be known for install, but is provided for reference here.
You should now be ready to run xtheater and have fun. Basic operation will be described in the next section, but this is very straightforward, so no instruction is needed, just provided for completeness.
Whats New in 1.0.0 pre1 Release:
- Fix check for smpeg, SDL, and avifile to check for a more current version.
- Enhanced flexibility of MPG/VCD fullscreen, allowing to choose scaling rather than a vidmode change.
- Fixed bug with smpeg plugin being run on X drivers with XVideo extension.
- Added support for XVideo extension for all player plugins, will automatically take advantage of XVideo overlays when available for scaling, revert to software scaler if unavailable
- made GL support with Mpeg compile if available, it is not recommended unless you have no other choice, however.
- Updated AVI/ASF plugin to use avifile-0.6 CVS rather than stable version.
- Enhanced plugin framework somewhat.
- Made it so that MPEG media could be closed by closing the playback window.
- Fixed bug where openeing too many files sequentially would cause player to crash (contributed by John Thacker)
Whats New in 0.9.2 Release:
- Fixed Seekbar to not update while being dragged.
- Designed for latest official stable avifile release (0.53.x)
- DPMS disabled for older XFree versions.
- Fixed drag and drop with nautilus file manager.
- Memory leak fixes by John Thacker

glpuzzle is an OpenGL jigsaw game.
The download includes the source code and 12 puzzles of increasing (4 pieces to 25 pieces) dificulty.
Compilation:
You need to have the following libraries installed: GL, glpng, SDL Debian/Ubuntu users can do:
$ apt-get install libglpng-dev libsdl1.2-dev
ompile glpuzzle with: make
You can directly execute the resulting binary glpuzzle, or see below.
Installation:
glpuzzle can be run from the current directory, or be installed running
make install
as root. By default, glpuzzle will be installed in /usr/local. To install in /usr, use
make install PREFIX=/usr
Usage:
glpuzzle [-h | -w]
-h show this usage info
-w window mode (default is fullscreen)
glpuzzle requires a OpenGL hardware accelaration and runs at 1024x768 only
For questions, suggestions, or information on how to add your own images, please contact the author.
Enhancements:
- added sound support
- user interface changes (an exit icon, color)
- bug fixes
- each puzzle is now a single file instead of a collection of files
- previews are generated on the fly

jzipscript is a program that runs in conjunction with the gl FTP daemon (glFtpD) to verify uploaded file integrity and to keep per-user and per-group statistics.

This is my well-known zipscript. It is used to verify uploaded file integrity and to keep per-user and per-group statistics. Collected statistics include the number of uploaded files, the rank relative to other uploaders, upload speed, and more. You will need the whi binary but thi is hard to find.

To install the zipscript, just run the included installer: "./install"
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INSTALL MANUALLY! You will undoubtedly miss something!
You must ensure glftpd.conf is set so glftpd logs newdirs UNDER rls dirs,
such as CD1, CD2, etc. For example:

This line is correct:
dirlog /site/Incoming/????/* *
This line is incorrect:
dirlog /site/Incoming/????/*/ *

TRONimation is a 3-D editing and animation program that aims to be compact and easy to use. It is written in C, and requies the installation only of GL, GLU, and GLUT.

One of my goals in writing this program is to make it as easy for using as much as possible. At the moment, I am rather focused on the console segment of the UI. Currently, almost all commands are accessed through the keyboard interface. When you start, the program show a blank background with the consoles main menu at the top left. On to bottom of the console, all commands possible from the current menu are listed. Above that is general, program-wide information and on top (usually blank) is specific information about any current events. The mouse can be used to jump right to the save/open menu and close/open the console with a left click, and change the program-wide output and render option with a right click.

I am soon going to write some documentation on how to use Tronimation online. I think most people could move about, but editing could pose a problem (In particular object types!). If you arent afraid of C source code, read DrawingRoutines.c to find out what the values are. In short, 0 = no object, 1 = cube, 2 = pyramid, 3 = cylinder, 4 = triangular prism, 5 = recognizer. If you try to use the recognizer, beware: Its nothing but a copy-paste job from a previous demo program I wrote. It wont change size and it isnt complete!

When you want to open a file, you can either enter the absolute directory (like /home/foo/bar/tronimation/data/world.dat) or use a relative directory which starts wherever you started tronimation from (From /home/foo, you could type bar/tronimation/data/world.dat). If you enter the wrong name, the program will simply flash an error message. Eventually, I will probably get around to listing and navigating directories.
