acclint is a lint program that checks AC3D model files for problems. It supports the standard AC3D file format (files ending in .ac) and the extended AC3D file format used by TORCS and Speed Dreams (files ending in .acc). acclint is also able to correct many common problems.
Use the git clone command to download this project:
git clone https://github.com/IOBYTE/acclint
cd acclint
Create a build directory inside the example project directory and configure the build using CMake to generate the Makefiles for GNU Make:
mkdir build && cd build
cmake CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
Then build the executable named acclint using GNU Make:
make
The resulting binary is acclint inside the build directory.
You can install acclint using GNU Make:
sudo make install
Here is an example of running acclint on the supplied file example.ac.

acclint can also fix and optimize many common non-fatal problems.
acclint example.ac -o example-cleaned.ac
produces this:

acclint can also convert from one file format version to another.
acclint filev12.ac -o filev11.ac -v 11
acclint filev11.ac -o filev12.ac -v 12
acclint can also convert .acc files to the .ac file format.
acclint file.acc -o file.ac
acclint can not convert .ac files to the .acc file format.
acclint file.ac -o file.acc
Can't convert file.ac to file.acc! Use accc from TORCS or Speed Dreams.
acclint can also dump the object hiearchy of a file.
acclint --dump surf -Wno-warnings example.ac

Running the regression tests on linux requires Bats (Bash Automated Testing System).
Change the current directory from the installed directory to the test directory and run the file testrunner.sh.
acclint must be installed before you can run the tests.
cd test
bash testrunner.sh
This software is in early development and is far from feature complete. There is a todo list in TODO.txt.
