MESA 3D Graphics Library
- A 3D graphics library with an API which is very similar to that of OpenGL.
NURBS++
- A C++ library to manipulate and create NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines) curves and surfaces. It also features vector, matrix, and OpenGL support classes. Latest stable release is 3.0.11, 2002-05-24. N.B.: This project still has lots of downloads despite the last release date in 2002 (SourceForge statistics from early 2012).
