Introduction

Env3D is a 3D library that makes it easy to create objects in a real time 3D environment, similar to modern video games. The primary audience of Env3D are computer science students learning OO concepts.

Integration with the BlueJ IDE is also available in the form of a BlueJ extension. The extension provides a limited interface to the Env3D library.

Currently, the env3d_bluej extension only works on the Windows OS (the env3d window won't display on OS X and I haven't tested it on Linux). The env3d library works on Windows and OS X (untested on Linux).
