Blender was somewhat limited in this regard, and K-3D was recommended. After looking through the wiki information and playing around with the OS X install, I'm quite impressed with K-3D, but I'd like to know the community's thoughts on what I'm trying to achieve.</p> <p>I want to:<br /> - create parametric objects using python, which could be loaded into K-3D, just like other 3D objects<br /> - these objects will have gui 'toggles' to control python functions/settings<br /> - objects should be 'locked down': allowing only certain translations/rotations, etc.<br /> - be able to group these objects into super-objects, which would have their own logic/settings<br /> - connect via python to an external data source (socket, db, etc.) for default settings/other data<br /> - use python to manipulate and export raw quantities as csv</p> <p>Specifically, I will start off with light gauge steel profiles as building components, which the user would be able to move, rotate, and stretch on only one axis, as well as toggle various settings per object.</p> <p>Is this possible with K-3D?

(python script?)<br /> 3. can anyone point me in the direction of a mirror of k3d's python api, <a href="http://www.k-3d.com/docs/epydoc" rel="nofollow">http://www.k-3d.com/docs/epydoc</a> &lt;-- this one appears to be down </p>
