Hi folks, I've been playing with OCE for visualization of IGES and STEP and have a very rough converter to translate IGES/STEP to VRML suitable for kicad's consumption. In the link below I am viewing a mechanical part (*.wrl file at the moment, exported by the rough tool) in the 3D file browser:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0By_XTJN-s8aXdnoxN2dPWFI2aEk There is still a lot to be done: clean up code, calculate normals, convert to 3D plugin, create appropriate CMakeModules for OCE, test, test, test --- but with some luck we will be able to simply use IGES and STEP model files as we currently use VRML files (pending merge of 3d_initial_merge and later inclusion of Mario's new 3D viewer). - Cirilo
