K-3D for Linux

K-3D is designed from-the-ground-up to generate motion-picture-quality animation with RenderMan-compliant render engines (such as aqsis).

Some of its features are:

* Record and play back interactive tutorials and macros.

* Able 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.

* Unlimited Undos/Redos.

* Default output to Pixar Renderman Interface Bytestream (RIB) files.

* K-3D documents are stored using a simple, flexible, easy-to-understand XML markup.

* Scripting interface supports Python, with open API for other scripting languages.

* Plugin support through its architecture in ANSI C++ and GTK+.
