Unlike most free software for creating 3D models (such as the famous application Blender) it does not focus on the artistic aspects of 3D modelling but instead on the CAD aspects. Thus it might be the application you are looking for when you are planning to create 3D models of machine parts but pretty sure is not what you are looking for when you are more interested in creating computer-animated movies.
Created attachment 216373 [details] First try
works for me, also works for 2010.05 release with simple rename
This needs a dependency on dev-cpp/eigen (for the 2010.05 version at least) and possibly some more things I already had installed..
It seems like the file openscad-2010.01.src.tar.gz has been removed. I think we need a version bump.
Created attachment 293049 [details] version bump for OpenSCad
I updated the ebuild for openscad, this is my first ebuild so tell me if I have made some errors, buts its works fine for me.
I'll see about getting this package into the tree - is the current attached the latest?
Committed to CVS with package mask during initial testing period. OpenCSG has also been added.
