I've been lurking for awhile and I'm curious about a few things pertaining to models:

1. I've heard a bit about AC3D and pretty-polly for models. Obviously these aren't the only formats. I know FG uses plib and it probably only supports a few models. I'm considering doing a little experimental programming for my own benefit, and want to take a crack at (for starting) static models and simple objects. What are some good formats for this?

2. What are some other good libraries for using them? I'm not very good at using other people's libraries, and I need some practice. I'm on a Wintendo, and it's an older one at that. (Is OpenSG comparable, or are they completely different?)

3. How does plib compare to these other libraries?

4. Could someone with some experience give me a short breakdown of the advantages and disadvantages of the various model formats they know?

Thanks,
JD
