From: lcastro on 6 May 2008 22:34 David, Thanks for the reply. In Halo 3 intro, a visitor can move through an environment that is seemingly 3D. The website is: http://halo3.com/believe/shell.html Are 3rd party AS3 libraries or examples avail?

Yeah, that's not Silverlight at all (you can tell by right-clicking/ctrl-clicking the display). I honestly don't know if Silverlight can do something like this -- my guess is, it can -- but in any case, this looks to me like either a video sequence that is being moved frame-by-frame, or a (reeeeally long) series of still images. This Halo 3 example is very nicely done. If it's a series of still images, you could pull off something like this with the code suggestion I made to another person recently. (This is really the same principle as a click-and-drag rotation presentation -- like the a QTVR rotation movie -- only instead of a sequence if stills, you're displaying a motion sequence.)

What you're seeing isn't 3D at all. There are 3D APIs available. The most notable that comes to mind is Papervision3D: http://www.papervision3d.org/ David Stiller Adobe Community Expert Dev blog, http://www.quip.net/blog/ "Luck is the residue of good design." |
