[ARTICLE/RESOURCE] PaperVision

[hooligan2001]

Hey guys just stumbled across this article on papervision and a small little tut on exporting 3d models into it.

There are 2 demos on it, one of space and one first person shooter. I've seen a few people attempting 3d lately so thought this might help.

Interesting, getting better, but I still dont understand why they dont just take what they learned about 3d import from director and appy that (hopefully improved greatly)plugin to flash. Its so easy in director to work with 3d, and still I feel looks better than paper vision.

it seems that the main problems still are the texture unwrapping and the mesh- parsing times. Even if you cache level parts, the flash player will propably go down as it currently still has a lot to calculate before it can render.
