Indeed. The 3D engine I’m working on will feature a plugin to use this feature.

Thanks for this — I knew about the Google 3D view, but I didn’t realize you could insert your own 3D content. That opens up a lot of interesting possibilities…

Nice! I was thinking the same thing about the convenient BSP format when I was trying to find an example for my 3d engine. See http://blog.glowinteractive.com/index.php/2010/01/quake-in-flash-9/

Comment on Amazon Web Services REST queries signature in ActionScript 3 by Thomas

Hey,

Thanks a lot for sharing this class, figuring this out all by myself would’ve cost me loads of time!
A small note regarding the generation of the timestamp:
I received an “invalid timestamp error” a few minutes after midnight, so as the timezone offset here is GMT+1 (Netherlands) I’m assuming the API listens to the clients’ local time (or the request is directed to a mirror).

now.setTime(now.getTime() + (now.getTimezoneOffset() * 60 * 1000));

should be simplified to

now.setTime(now.getTime());

Looks interesting. I am using Quake software for design purposes. The Quake-series is really awesome.

Comment on BSP Tree Optimization in Flash 10 by Promethe

@makc : The model has 192 polygons. Don’t forget TPS means Triangles PER SECOND. So when the framerate is 24, you got 192 * 24 TPS.

@zproxy : Open source is not something I can’t afford for now. All this 3D stuff is part of a 3D API that might go commercial. Open source is an option, but not yet… sorry
