RE: FLASH: Flash: algorithmens

[Simon Wheatley]

Hello.


One of the effects (the flying letters) is created with the following source

file.


http://www.lares.dti.ne.jp/~yugo/mono/flash/flyingletters.zip


The other more three dimensional effects like the 8 glowing balls in the

shape of a cube, and the interactive 3d Flash menu at Rand Interactive are

using something more sophisticated.


Someone from Rand Interactive has posted a movie clip that calculates the

sine and cosine trigonometry needed to model 3d movement on a Flash help

Website. I can't remember where it was originally, but the file is now

available on my Website at:


http://websites.ntl.com/~simon.wheatley/trig.zip


The file was created by Brandon Hall at Rand Interactive, and I claim to

credit for it...I'm just posting cos I can't remember where to refer people

to.


Once you've got this then check out

http://www.sfx.co.nz/tamahori/thought/shock_3d_howto.html

or

http://www.director-online.com/howto/UD_articles/UD80.html

for Director 3d ideas...then get a truckload of cold damp towels on your

head and hang on in there.


Let me know if you have better resources or work anything good out!


Simon
