360 Degree Virtual Tours.

[ifmuth]

I've always enjoyed those 360 degree movable panoramics that you can view with ipix or quicktime VR. But I was thinking, it seems like it would also be possible to build these with 3dfa. By simply creating a larged stiched together image and setting limits to how far the image can be srolled. The only problem is, I have no idea how to do any flash scripting. Basically, I want to have an image that starts to shift to the right when the movie loads up (that I can do). However, users can then move the image about by holding and dragging their cursor in whatever direction they'd like to go. When they release, the image stops moving. Anyone have an idea on how to get this started? I think it would open up some new possibilities.

Thanks for your help,
Ian

Update: Found a new bug in current version..... This works fine in preview but on export the image doesn't wrap no matter how many tiles I set it to.
