Hi,
I can show you some progress of my work with this screenshots from parts that I 
took directly from 3dcontentcentral in "their" VRML V1 format:

It may still need a bit of cleaning the code before submit.

I have more ideas in mind and could contribute, however, I was looking for the 
first time to the overwall kicad source code (and special the 3d viewer source 
code), and I am a bit disapointed.
It is a lot messy and it is missing a proper library support, if we want expand 
and improove features.. ( things like vector, matrix, math, etc.. )

I am not planning add by my self source code to do vector and matrix, 3d 
stuff... it will be too time consuming, so.. is it possible or planned to adopt 
/ import some other open source library? what are the policies?


Regards,
Mario Luzeiro

Subject: [Kicad-developers] 3D viewer, VRML V1.0 support

Hello, I am new to kicad-developers.
I am planning to do my first contribution: adding support to 3D Viewer to read 
VRML V1.0 files. It practically means that it will be possible to direct 
download parts in VRML format from the 3dContenteCentral.com website without 
any more middle conversion :)


I need some guidance in kicad development, so I have some questions:

How can I submit my source code contributions?
Is there anyone responsible for 3D viewer related parts?
Are there anyone already working at moment in 3D viewer related stuff?
What are the big picture planes for 3D related stuff in kicad?
Is there any place where I can find a list of related wishes?


Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Mario
