It’s been a little over a year since LDView 3.0 Beta 1 was released, but LDView 3.0 is finally done. You can get it for both Windows and Linux, as well as the source code, from the LDView downloads page here:

http://ldview.sourceforge.net/Downloads.html

Compared to LDView 3.0 RC1, this version is mainly bug fixes. Compared to the last stable LDView release (2.1.01), this version has a whole bunch of new features. Some of the highlights are:
  • Significantly reduced memory usage and load time on large models.
  • BFC (back-face culling) support.
  • Toolbar for quick access to certain functionality.
  • Linux version with functionality nearly identical to the Windows version. (Thanks to Peter Bartfai for this.)
  • Support for language DLLs so that LDView can be translated into other languages. The German DLL is essentially done (by Willy Tschager), and will be released shortly. Others will follow if people do the translation. (I’m almost ashamed to admit it, but I’m mono-lingual.)
  • Added distinction between errors and warnings, and added detection of quite a few new problems, now that they could be labeled as warnings and not errors.
Please see the full change history here.

Please send any bugs, suggestions, or other feedback to ldview@gmail.com.
