Hey Guys, I've been away for 3 months and was wondering if anybody had released any good cross platform 3d mods in that time. I noticed MiniB3D, and i'll sure be looking into it, but i was wondering if there was anything else out there yet. Any help much appreciated. Also, anybody know if BRL is looking for beta testers yet? Regards, Jay.

If you used Irrlicht, it's pretty nice enough, and cross W32/Mac/Linux. One of my main choice before Max3D is out.....

oh yeah.. i forgot the mac Irrlich is out. Do we have a binding yet?

Gman's Irr module is open sourced choice. http://www.gprogs.com/forum/index.php There's no Mac port for BMax yet, and Gman seems stopped it for a while, thw Win32 port is pretty usable now.

I gave the Mac module a go, but I keep getting linker errors. So Mac is probably a no-go for irrlicht ATM.

MiniB3D is supposed to work on both.

MiniB3D works just fine on windows and mac.
