About LeoCAD
|
||
|
|
------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
LeoCAD is a CAD program that allows people to build virtual models using
|
||
|
|
bricks similar to those found in LEGO toys. It's available for free under
|
||
|
|
the GNU Public License v2, and works on the Windows and Linux Operating
|
||
|
|
Systems.

Installation
|
||
|
|
------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can download the latest version of LeoCAD and its Pieces Library from
|
||
|
|
the main website at http://www.leocad.org
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It's recommended that you install the latest drivers for your video card,
|
||
|
|
since LeoCAD can take advantage of hardware acceleration for rendering by
|
||
|
|
using OpenGL.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- LeoCAD for Windows:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Download LeoCAD-0.75.2-4351.exe to your computer, double click on the
|
||
|
|
icon to launch the installer and follow the intructions.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- LeoCAD for Linux:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can either download the source from Subversion or use the i386 rpm
|
||
|
|
binaries. If you decide to compile it yourself you will also need to
|
||
|
|
download the Pieces Library separately, extract it to any directory of
|
||
|
|
your choice and point the LEOCAD_LIB environment variable to it. More
|
||
|
|
information is available at http://www.leocad.org
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
