Hi,

i'm looking for a Ruby extension to create/manipulate 3d environment and generate 2d image from it.

Thanks all.

There's a binding to SDL here: http://www.kmc.gr.jp/~ohai/rubysdl.en.html

The SDL GL interface is pretty easy to get your head around. Is that
what you were looking for?

Installing SDL is bothersome. At least with the one-click installer,
you can use OpenGL directly. There are examples with the installation.

You can use both given options then, I think. Certainly SDL.

But for such simple renderings I'd recommend a client side Javascript
or Flash rendering engine to save on bandwidth.

You could certainly use JRuby with the gaggle of 3D/2D libraries and
frameworks out there. I don't know how to use them myself, but they're
pretty full-featured.
