Virtual Space: A New Papervision3D Component by AFComponents
Posted on 17 May 2008.
The Virtual Space is an AS3 component that can be used to create virtual-tour type visualizations very easily. Simply specify 6 images to be used for top, bottom, left, right, front, and back. Then, position the camera, set the initial view, and specify interaction parameters.
Features Include:
- Animation settings for displaying space without user interaction
- Configurable mouse interaction
- Style properties for image backgrounds and containers
- Initial view settings
I haven’t seen too many effective attempts using Papervision3D in this manner. I think this component is going to supply the proper tools needed to create many creative virtual tours or walkthroughs. AFComponents really took this a step further by expanding the use of Papervision3D beyond its typical cool effects. Nice job to the guys over at AFComponents.
interesting. I’m going to find virtualspace out. thanks for the info.
Is this program usefull to create virtual games?
Thanks for writing, I really enjoyed your newest post. I think you should post more frequently, you obviously have talent for blogging!
Been looking for something for some time now. Let’s see … Can one actually use it to make a 3D pages (getting rid of 2D navigation etc) ?
