Personally I would take one of mature C++ engines and wrap it you
like
with Objective-C (using Objective-C++). I generally shy away from
recreating something if I don't really need to do that.
How about writing a wrapper for this one:
http://quesa.sourceforge.net/
it is Apple related of some sort, it's an free implementation of
QuickDraw™ 3D (QD3D), released under BSD License (so no trouble
here) and quite mature.
QD3D is a pretty old API. (Introduced 1995, discontinued 1998.) I'm
not sure how well the Quesa implementation supports features like
textures and lighting, and I'd be very surprised if it had any
support at all for newer stuff like shaders. Depending on what you're
doing, this'll probably be somewhere between a mild annoyance and a
total showstopper._______________________________________________
