So I was looking for ports of LDraw related applications to Linux and stumbled across a few leads but most were old and dead ends. Then I found KLDraw and Klotz which were old MLCAD ports to Linux that appeared to be dead as well. But a Google search revealed that though KLDraw and Klotz were no longer being developed, they led to a new and improved, and much more powerful program called Konstruktor.

Konstruktor

by Park "segfault" Koon-Jyu

Version: 0.9.0-beta1 released on Feb 1,2011 (01.02.2011)

Is an open source LDraw compatible CAD package built around a full OpenGL rendering engine.

Features:

Full native OpenGL 3D engine.

Built on the KDE 4.0 platform

Multiple window support.

Advanced MLCAD based user interface

Integrated in POV-Ray rendering.

Cross platform support for Linux with coming support for MAC OS and Windows.

Screenshots: (to large to include in post)

User interface

Submodel assembly

Integrated POV-Rat renderer

Website (especially for those Linux users out there who are dying to try it out - Note: Only a source code beta right now that needs compiling - Debian/Ubuntu AMD64 and i386 builds available)

Konstruktor

Once I can compile a build to run on my Fedora 14 install I will post additional information.
