Hey! Awesome and welcome! So you are most interested in 3D modeling? Are you more interested in environment/terrain or character modeling?

We definitely need to figure out how best to start incorporating models and having them scale appropriately. We also need to start on LOD/frustum calls between the terrain reference engine and the Renderer's three.js basic geometries.

I bought 3D Engine Design for Virtual Globes, it's a pretty good book though I haven't had chance to implement any yet. I've been too busy project managing and working on the bootstrap theme for the site (plus my day job getting hectic).

Anyway, this project is all about you deciding what to do. Send me an email at iontom@gmail and I'll introduce you to everybody. We also have this informal g+ page since hangouts have proven to be pretty useful. gchat has been easiest way to keep in touch. We also have a private server and can send you details on that!

Cheers!

Which grad schools are you looking at and are you thinking pure CS or something else? I've been considering it myself, but I studied astronomy so I want something that is programming related but not solid CS.

You can start with this book

But you have a pretty formidable task in front of you to implement this on your own, good luck..
