This repository contains additional Kicad schematic symbols and footprints used in mup hardware projects.
Some footprints include a reference to models from the GPL'd 3d library by "kcswalter". These are optional models and not included in the mup Kicad library.
If you clone the walter repo:
git clone git://smisioto.eu/kicad_libs.git
You can have Kicad use these models during 3d preview mode by adding a new env variable in PCBNew "Preferences/Configure Paths" called WALTER_KI3DMOD and with the path set to the /modules/packages3d/ directory.
Any footprint in the mups library that has the 3d model path prefixed with {WALTER_KI3DMOD}/walter/ will then use the appropriate 3D model.
The same will apply to {MUPS_KI3DMOD}/mups/ although at this time I've yet to create any custom 3D models and find it unlikely I will do so.
Please refer to the LICENSES file.
