libsecondlife: 3D makes us happy!

 In the case that you don't check libsecondlife.org very often, and you actually read MY blog, check out the latest news I just posted.

Have you ever wondered what Second Life would look like rendered through an open source third party application?

I have, and now, thanks to libsecondlife developer John Hurliman, I know without a doubt that Second Life is a world of boxes flat shaded with random pastel colors! This renderer created for debug purposes is rendering a house using only a box primitive. Future updates will hopefully support more primitive types.

It's just the tip of the iceberg for 3D with libsecondlife. Also in the early stages of development is a 3D engine created by Adam Zaius that will be part of the first fully functional client using libsecondlife, codenamed Slight. Check out the Slight Roadmap to see what is planned for Slight and contribute your thoughts.
