AS3 & PV3D Go Fly a Kite!
I’m back with another Papervision 3D based demo I call “Go Fly A Kite”. The goal of this experiment was to combine a couple of the concepts I wrote about previously. This experiment combines bezier lines, custom meshes and whole bunch of other stuff like parallaxing, physics, perlin noise wind influence, etc. It would be a rather lengthy explanation of the source, so I am providing it for anyone to mull over. This is just an experiment and therefore not perfect, so use at your own risk. Feel free to comment any questions. Enjoy!
AS3 Procedural Tree with Papervision 3D
One of the true powers of PaperVision 3D is getting down and dirty at the geometry level and creating custom meshes. Doing this requires knowledge of what a mesh consists of and how to construct a TriangularMesh. Basically a mesh consists of two things: Vertices and Faces. Vertices are basically the corner points of a [...]
AS3 Cubic Bezier Looping Lines
For this experiment I took some code I had written for a recent project and repuprosed it in a more artistic and abstract manner. The idea is basically to loop for a specified distance and create points, which are later connected into a continuous cubic bezier line. Here is the code: 123456789101112131415161718192021222324252627282930313233343536373839404142434445464748495051525354555657585960616263646566676869public function createLoopingLine(distance:Number):void { [...]
