AC3D

AC3D Features:
- Fast real-time OpenGL graphics views (2D and 3D).
- Multipoint polygon and line editing down to vertex level.
- No polygon limits.
- Extrusion and surface revolution.
- Software development kit and plugin interface.
- Fast and memory efficient, compact program binary.
- Built-in fast OpenGL 3D renderer with adjustable field-of-view - instantly see results of your actions in 3D.
- Edit at different granularity - groups, objects, surfaces, vertices.
- Full polygon editing. e.g create a sphere and easily move the points (vertices) to deform the shape.
- Create and edit multi-point polygons and lines - not just triangles.
- Manipulate individual surfaces.
- Texture mapping support with real-time rendering.
- Graphical Texture Coordinate Editor.
- Assemble surfaces into new objects.
- 4 views - 3 orthographic and one 3D. All at once or individually.
- Named objects can be searched for within a scene.
- Navigate/Zoom around the 2d views with cursor keys and other single key presses.
- Hierarchical view window.
- Hide/unhide objects for easier/faster editing of complicated scenes.
- Headlight and up to 7 other positionable lights.
- 24-bit colour palette with adjustable diffuse; ambient; emissive; specular; shininess and transparency.
- Adjustable 2D and 3D grid guide lines with grid-snap function.
- Create new surfaces/objects around any selection (Convex hull).
- Configurable to use external renderers such as Povray and BMRT.
- Multi platform program - AC3D file format compatible across platformsAttach URLs to objects for use in VRML files.
- Attach string data to objects to be used as scripting in Dive or special directives for POV or renderman.
- Supports many output/input formats including.
- Extrude and revolve 2D lines to make 3D shapes.
- scale a selection to a specific size.
- flip a selection (mirror) about X, Y or Z axis.
- Remove duplicate vertices and surfaces ('optimize').
- Simple documented file formats allow easy conversion from other forms of data - ideal for visualizing your own data in 3D.
- Plugin interface (registered versions only) with source code for existing plugins and a software development kit.
