CHAI3D Library Downloads
Linux
To compile and run, follow the instructions provided in the README file.
chai3d-3.0.0-Makefiles.tar.gz
Mac OS X
We strongly recommend all students update to the latest version of the operating system, Mac OS X Mavericks (10.9). Download and install the newest Xcode from the App Store to compile the CHAI3D library. No drivers are needed!
chai3d-3.0.0-XCode.dmg
If, for whatever reason, you need to run an older version of Mac OS X, you may need to download one of these SDKs and replace the DHD library within the CHAI3D package with the appropriate one for your OS version.
[ OS X version 10.8 | OS X version 10.7 | OS X version 10.6 ]
Microsoft Windows
You may use either Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, 2012, or 2013 to build the CHAI3D libraries. If you do not already have a copy of Visual Studio on your computer, you can download Visual Studio Express 2013 for free, or obtain a free copy of the professional edition from Microsoft Dreamspark.
