K-3D is the free-as-in-freedom 3D modeling, animation, and rendering solution.

K-3D features a robust, object-oriented plugin architecture, designed to scale to the needs of professional artists, and is designed from-the-ground-up to generate motion-picture-quality animation using RenderMan-compliant render engines. We strongly recommend the Aqsis render engine for use with K-3D.

K-3D's innovative interactive tutorial system will introduce you to basic use of the program. New tutorials can easily be recorded and shared with the rest of the community.

K-3D allows you to create and edit documents in multiple realtime OpenGL solid, shaded, texture-mapped views. You can even model, animate, and interact with animations while they play back for maximum productivity!

Here are some key features of "K 3D":
Workflow

  • Procedual modeling and animation.
  • Interactive tutorials.
  • Unlimited hierarchical undo/redo.
    Viewing
  • Camera: pan/tilt, zoom, dolly, modeling and tripod modes.
  • Viewing Modes: Detailed selection of visible features.
  • Hide / unhide geometry.
    Modeling
  • Powerful scene graph procedual modeling with complete modeling history.
  • Selection: Objects, meshes, faces, edges, patched, curves, point groups, point.
  • Geometry types: Polygon, NURBS, subdivision, blobby.
  • 3D Primitives: Cone, circle, cushion, cylinder, disk, grid, paraboloid, polyhedon, sphere, torus.
  • Boolean modeling operations.
  • Text: FreeType? support.
  • Instantiation: Create duplicates without adding gemometry to the scene.
    Animation
  • Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) allows arbitrary dataflow - any object property can be connected to any other compatible property.
  • Animate any value.
  • Unlimited number of animation channels.
  • Bezier curve channels.
  • Animate modeling operations.
    Materials and Textures
  • Textures with 16-bit float bitdepth.
  • Procedual RenderMan shaders.
    Rendering
  • Full RenderMan Support: Aqsis, Pixie, BMRT, PRman, 3Delight, Render Dot C.
  • Extensible support for alternate render engines and models: YafRay.
  • Render OpenGL previews to disk.
    Scripting
  • Python engine (preferred for new script development).
  • K3DScript engine (minimal scripting engine for tutorials / macros).
  • JavaScript engine (legacy script engine).
  • Support for alternate script engine plugins and environments.
    Compositing
  • Basic 2D compositing.
  • Bitdepth 16-bit float per channel.
    Supported Formats
  • Geometry Formats: AC3D, ASCII Scene Export, Apple QuickDraw?3D, AutoCad, Ayam, DirectX?, GNU Triangulated Surfaces, Quake II, PDB, RenderMan Interface Bytestream, VRML, Wavefront ... (some of them depend on PLIB installation)
  • Image Formats:
    - JPEG (all platforms).
    - PNG (all platforms).
    - TIFF (all platforms).
    - OpenEXR (requires optional OpenEXR plugin).
    - BMP (requires optional ImageMagick? plugin).
    - SUN (requires optional ImageMagick? plugin).
