3D models: custom VRML export vs FreeCAD (OCE/Coin3D) VRML export

 

Hi folks,

 I'd just like to share a comparison of the OCE VRML export from my
visualization experiments vs the FreeCAD VRML exporter.

FreeCAD: file size ~28MB, >800 warnings about defects in the model,
 bad lighting model for VRML:

Custom OCE export (via the scenegraph library from kicad 3D work):
~14MB, no warnings, default lighting as per VRML2 specification.

Original STEP file size: ~15MB
