More FIVe3D Fun

The ease of use has prompted me to throw together a couple of more demos. I must admit, I don't dig the low level details of complex math, matrix algorithm, 3D logic, or whatever you call it. On top of that, I'm a lazy coder. If it's easy to use and it works, it will tickle my fancy. Plain and simple. That's why I have much appreciation for the people behind those Flash APIs floating around (FIVe3D, PV3D, APE, Box2D, FOAM, etc) and making them free because they are the catalyst for the majority of Flash developers in creating cutting-edge experience.

Anyway, here is a couple of demos with one demonstrating the use of DynamicText3D and the other demonstrating a cube formation with images of my favorite robots as sides brought in as Bitmap3D. Very easy and useful. Images of my favorite robots come from Michael Bay himself on his blog. Make sure you have d/led the FIVe3D source files from five3d.mathieu-badimon.com/.

FIVe3D, so easy to use, even a caveman's cat can do it.

FIVe3D does not have camera or collada support; it lacks all the primitives such as Papervision or other 3D API have. But for your everyday Flash websites it will more than suffice. Wow factor? It's all about how you use the tool.

Don't believe me? Check out the demo I just threw together in minutes. Right-click to toggle full-screen.

Update: Just d/led Flash Player 10. Look at that frame rate!



Oh and of course, right-click here for the source. I did not include the FIVe3D classes here. You will need to download them at five3d.mathieu-badimon.com
