Do you have an algorithm that you intend to implement that doesn't use

Everything I have read about 3D is based on matrix multiplication.

We designed this based on OpenGL 1.3. (We actually used a 2.0 spec
and just ignored the ARB stuff.) It's a C-language model of the
rendering engine. The translation to Verilog won't be trivial, but
for mostly mechanical reasons; the algorithm will be essentially the
same.
This is adequate for all the cool 3D desktop stuff. Compiz-Fusion
should work great with this. It's the high-end games that require
shaders that you'll have problems with.
I am under the weather a bit too, so I am not going to go into this in
detail, but I glanced through ogmodel.cpp and I see a lot of matrix
arithmetic. The fact that you have written it explicitly rather than
using matrices and vectors doesn't change the fact that it is matrix
arithmetic.
