Adobe Responds: Flash isn’t Open Source, but we’re trying

seangw — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 13:59:28 +0000

A few days ago I had posted Apple, Adobe, Flash, iPhone, iPad and Open Source with reference to a debate on various blogs. The debate is whether Flash will ever go open source, should they, and what it means to the Apple / iPhone / iPad contingent. Adobe came back with the blog post Following [...]

Windows 7 – First Impressions

seangw — Wed, 06 May 2009 15:15:12 +0000

It’s been a while — life has been quite busy. Drupal, WordPress, Blender, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Illustrator, Flex, Flash, Actionscript, Papervision. Even got some bicycling and racquetball in there on the weekends. In the past, wow, month. I’ve been up to quite a bit, and will be posting things on here about them all. [...]

If you haven’t seen the many internet postings about the website, check out the video below. Even better, if you have a camera and a printer handy, check out GE Smart Grid Augmented Reality.

Access Stage from anywhere in Actionscript 3

seangw — Fri, 13 Feb 2009 19:56:57 +0000

Learned about a promising library for Actionscript 3 today, Casalib. There will be more information about the library, as I’m just starting to get to playing with it. Something that has been pissing off recently, has been the lack of ability to easily reference the stage from any object in AS3. I find myself building [...]

AS2 vs AS3 when it comes to classes and packages

seangw — Fri, 07 Nov 2008 22:34:54 +0000

I’m doing some research into what other people use as their desired AS3 package/class structure. In reading a handful of articles and reviewing some code, I ran into the following post: Moving From Flash AS2 To Flash AS3: Packages on 8-bit Rocket Quick Summary: AS2 has a flexible approach to packages AS2 package names [...]

So far so good with Papervision3D. It took me a few hours but I’m already mostly up and running with the new framework. Later on I will post each step that I made in working with Papervision3D. When I learn a new framework I like to learn each of the basic tools first in their [...]

Papervision 3D work

seangw — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 19:42:12 +0000

Among us flash web developers, who hasn’t tried creating a 3D engine of their own before? I think it’s par for the course for any flash programmer who has taken linear mathetmatics or 3d coding classes at some point in our histories. I’ll admit, my last official adventuring into 3D engine work was maybe 8 [...]
