Welcome to the Dim3 Wiki

The Dim3 Wiki is a community project started by a few members of the Dim3 Forum to provide information about Dim3 and help new users to better understand how it works and how to use it. The Wiki contains a scripting and XML documentation, tutorials and general information, as well as a collection of useful links and resources, such as example scripts, textures, models or shaders.

What is Dim3?

Dim3, also known as Dimension 3, is a freeware open-source 3D game engine for Mac OS X, created by Brian Barnes.

Dim3 uses OpenGL for rendering, OpenAL for audio, JavaScript for scripting (using Mozilla's SpiderMonkey implementation), XML for data and Simple DirectMedia Layer for resolution switching and input. Dim3 was chosen as a staff pick for OS X development software by Apple.
