Moonlight 3D – Linux can do 3D animation

   

Some 2 weeks ago, I posted an article about Genious, an excellent Java program. When writing that blog I recalled another brilliant Java program I installed about an year ago. It’s a 3D animation program ! No one will think Java can do that.

It’s a simple program written using Swing, mostly like 3D studio max to design and animate 3D objects. A grid is there as usual with space vectors x,y,z. 3D view and xy,yz,xz plane views are shown simultaneously. A timeline is visible when you hit create animation button. Additionally, python scripts can be used to program the animation.  You can select one of many basic shapes under create object pane, and modify it from the modify menu bar. So my first drawing looked like this. (I’m not good at graphics). Anyway, you can have some fun with this program, whatever you know.
