Open Source Lua Graphics Software

The PoDoFo library is a free, portable C++ library. It can parse and modify existing PDF files and create new ones from scratch. It also includes several tools to work with PDF files. It features an unique approach which provides access to PDF documents via an object tree. Therefore, PDFs can be created and or manipulated using a simple tree structure. Development of PoDoFo has been moved to GitHub: https://github.com/podofo/podofo Please raise new issues in the GitHub project.

CD (Canvas Draw) is a platform-independent graphics library. It is implemented in several platforms using native graphics libraries: Windows (GDI) and X-Windows (XLIB). The canvas is an abstract surface that can be a window, an image or a metafile.

IM is a toolkit for Digital Imaging. IM is based on 4 concepts: Image Representation, Storage, Processing and Capture. The main goal of the library is to provide a simple API and abstraction of images for scientific applications.

Ayam is a free 3D modelling environment for the RenderMan interface.

PS_View is a PostScript and PDF previewer. It is multiplatform (Windows, Linux and Mac OS X), GUI program based on the Ghostscript engine. Key features include huge magnification, fast viewing of large documents, exact measuring, and restart.

LuaGL is a library that provides access to all of the OpenGL funcionality from Lua script language.

TacitPixel is a scalable C++ framework for building application prototypes for interactive collaborative VR/AR applications. It provides a number of features that make prototyping fast and portable. TacitPixel is the successor of the TAP and Twisted Pair engines.

NOTE: Codebase is being moved to it's new home at: https://github.com/cjcliffe/CubicVR A high-performance object-oriented OpenGL 2.0 & OpenGL ES 3D engine with a simple implicit library interface. Includes GLSL, Bullet physics and Lua scripting.

Doris is a Lua script driven OpenGL viewer with GUI widget extensions. Lua is a fast, powerful, portable scripting language. Lua bindings are provided to OpenGL, GLUT, GLUI (a GL widget library) and Luasocket (networking).

This is a game engine that helps game developer to produce game easier.It is writen in C++ and all of the functions are fixed into classes as the engine is designed in the method of Object-Oriented.

Freedom is a massively multiplayer role playing game allowing a dynamic world where players can work together to change the world using a variety of skills, including combat, magic, construction and crafting. Dynamic 3D modelling ensures a vibrant game.

March 2013 this project was announced first to public, but the feedback was ZERO. So I guess it is insanely bad and unusable. Ok. But sorry, I decided to continue it for myself to improve my inability and unexperience in software development FOR MYSELF. Even if it seemed to be the worst thing ever, I *NEED* to develop software for my own well being and even if I apparently - after over 20 years since the first lines of code I wrote - I improved my ability not a single bit than it is like that and I can't change it. BTW: there was feedback indeed: from the own 'family': "it is done by YOU so it cannot be of use for anybody!" (Literally: it contains algorithms and algorithms are evil and are non-existent in usable software)

Ipe is an extensible drawing editor for creating figures in PDF and Postscript format. It supports making small figures for inclusion into LaTeX-documents as well as presentations in PDF.

Imagine, that browsing 3D worlds would be as easy as browsing web pages. Or that you could take character modeled and animated by you into your favorite 3D game, invite your friend to your personal 3D reality. Or that... ENOUGH!! Time to make it real!

Lembraco is a graphical editor that lets you load or create a 3D object and change its properties. Lembraco can load a midi file or listen to an external midi source. The incoming midi values are filtered and passed to the engine for event handling.

LuaCV is OpenCV library wrapper for Lua language. Main goal is to access fast image processing library to light-weight, non-type language. Thanks to CMake project is a much easier to compile it under many OS platforms which are supported by OpenCV. LuaCV is being developed at faculty of Electrical Engineering and Communication of Brno University of Technology in Czech republic. Working with: Lua 5.2, OpenCV 2.2-2.4 LuaCV-0.2.0 (svn rev. 62) is last version compatible with Lua 5.1 but working only with OpenCV 2.2 and below.

A set of functions, macros and classes to handle platform specific features in a platform independent way.

Palomino was an unfinished action/combat flight simulator. Air-to-air combat mode was never implemented. However, it does have a land-on-carrier and shoot-SAMs missions. Requires OpenSceneGraph. Optional: SDL, FLTK.

Pear3DEngine is a modern and modular 3D development framework that lets you create professional games, simulations and more. You are free to develop your program in C + +, XML or LUA and publish it as open source software or selling it as a commercial program. The rendering engine uses internally OpenGL or DirectX optionally. The planned editor supports software development on Linux, Windows and maybe MacOS X. DirectX 9 and therefore Windows XP are currently not supported and support is not planned in the future. One goal of the Pear3DEngine Framework is to use the latest and most promising algorithms and techniques from the 3D and IT scene.

SDL Framework (SDLFW) SDLFW is a cross-platform framework from the powerful SDL library to create your own 2D games with the Lua programming language. It's easy-to-use, free, open-source, and works on Windows and Linux.

The Video Annotation and Reference System (VARS) is a software interface and database system that provides tools for describing, cataloging, retrieving, and viewing the visual, descriptive, and quantitative data associated with video.

XreaL is a heavily improved Quake 3 Arena engine. It's bundled with new tools and a demo game that was never finished. ET:XreaL is a subproject bringing all XreaL enhancements to Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory.

A digital animation tool for real-time generation and interpretation of images, video and visual effects, allowing the artist/operator to adjust, on the fly, the parameters of the effects according to his or her own sensibility.

Realtime 3D game/visualization engine, written in C++, scriptable through Tcl/Tk, Python and Lua. Supports D3D and OpenGL for rendering, runs under Linux and Windows.
