hi!
i want to build up a simple 3d interactive geometry application in
python. Since i want to run it without 3D acceleration (a scene will
be quite simple) I was wondering if there was a library in python that
allow me to build 3D graphic without the need to use OpenGL.... I
google but i can't find nothing interesting... (the best would be a
pure python solution)

Thanks,
nelson

Here's a page (http://www.vrplumber.com/py3d.py) with links to 73 possible
libraries.

I've played with *** (http://***.sourceforge.net/) and it is quite easy
to work with. Here's a Flash movie (recorded using Wink) of a sphere that
I programmed and rotated about:
http://www.geocities.com/ptmcg/python/sphere1.htm, and here is the program
that created it: http://www.geocities.com/ptmcg/python/vecSlut2.py.txt.

The demos that come with *** are quite impressive, too. The *** project
web page summarizes them here
(http://***.sourceforge.net/examples/index.html), but the little videos
don't do them justice.

Well, shoot, I killed my free bandwidth on GeoCities with that link to the
Flash animation!

I've uploaded a smaller video, should support 20-25 views/hour, instead of 3
like the old one. Please bear with me.

Thanks,
