update on 3D stuff

 

Hi folks,

 Just a quick update on more recent 3D developments. With some suggestions
from Mario the normals calculations have been improved and models now look
better in the file selector.  There are some lighting issues which Mario is
helping me to work on, and that can be seen in the images I have attached.

vrml1_smoothed_new_viewer.jpg: VRML1 model as seen in the preview in
Mario's branch

vrml1_other_viewer.jpg: same model seen with the view3dscene tool - KiCad
has a much nicer result.

vrml1_smoothed_old_viewer.jpg : same model but in the 3d_initial_merge
branch. There's something wrong with the lighting and I don't know what
yet, but we're working on it.

- Cirilo
