It's a blender game engine thing. (it may very well internally use py2exe). Here's a resource on how you do it: http://www.blender.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17838&sid=5fa212f30833199dab4950e70d311490 Blender's game engine can probably be used to create a 3D model viewer, since the game engine is not specifically oriented towards games. It's more of a rudimentary "interactive 3D framework", offering simple visual programming capabilities, and an awesome 3D editor, which is Blender itself. The greatest advantage to it is that it is couped with a 3D program. So you can create your physics bodies, entities, lights, etc., place them wherever you want and run the simulation. You can very likely import your CAD models into Blender using the many importers it has. It can import .3DS, .OBJ, etc. files with ease, provided you find (or write!) the plugins for them. -- Fábio Santos -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
