New 3D engine

There’s a new 3d engine in the place (Sharikura 3D Library) which was developed by http://www.roxik.com/. It’s a truly amazing piece of work. Go and check it out here. http://temp.roxik.com/datas/perform/index.html

Oh and by the way it’s the engine which was used to developed the really nice http://ecodazoo.com/ website. it feels so much lighter than Papervision3D.

Can wait for Roxik to release it…
