Hi Murat,

I have been improving the VRML 2 parser (and 3D-viewer) to handle and support more cases (since different softwares will generate different VRML case formats).
Currently trunk version still have an issue in transparencies on some modules (I will submit a patch soon).
The only big issue I know is import models exported from Meshlab. It will crash! :S I will look on that later..

Would you like to share your test model and point the issues you are finding?
Thanks!

Mario Luzeiro

Subject: [Kicad-developers] FreeCAD 0.15

Hi Guys,

I was using FreeCAD 0.14 + Wings3D to create or use 3D models, but right now with FreeCAD 0.15 I'm able to export models directly to KiCad. There is no issue with reading FreeCAD exported VRML files. The good thing is, this method allows you to preserve surface colors. I've seen some minor issues, though. But the model was really complex (another fairly dense assembled PCB, not coming from KiCad)

I'm not sure this could be known, but as far as I'm following this group no one mentioned something about this topic.

Cheers,

/// Murat
