format.
Supported platforms include GNU (autoconf, automake, libtool, make, GCC) on
Unix and Cygwin, and MS Visual C++ 6.0. lib3ds loads and saves Atmosphere

Materials, Cameras, Lights, Meshes, Hierarchy, Animation keyframes. It also
contains useful matrix, vector and quaternion mathematics tools. lib3ds
usually integrates well with OpenGL. In addition, some diagnostic and
