'Smooth proxy' style catmull-clark subdivision surfaces.A range of 3D object types including polygon meshes, NURBS surfaces, bezier and B-spline curves, metaballs, vector fonts (TrueType, PostScript, OpenType).Available for Windows, Linux, Irix, Sun Solaris, FreeBSD or Mac OS X. You might want to compile an older Bforartists version where the newest precompiled libs do not work.Blender is an open source software for 3D modeling, rendering, animation, post-production, interactive creation and playback. Here’s the Blender advice for Linux, which goes a bit more into detail:

Here’s a short tutorial that shows the whole process under Linux Ubuntu 17 And here a youtube video that shows how to compile Bforartists 2 on Ubuntu 20: In case that you want to compile Bforartists by yourself, the advice is the same as for Blender. The actual source code can be found on the Github project site:įor previous and official releases have a look in the releases tab:
