One thing about this I forgot to mention. In my humble opinion, Viewpoints integration of built-in Flash still kinda needs a lot of work. It's mostly for those wanting to import animations. That's not how we used it...it's real power lies within the fact that we didn't import any flash into viewpoint...what we have is the two applications playing nicely together instead.

Wonderful plugin. especuilly when used with Right Hemisphere products. http://www.righthemisphere.com/ Viewpoint is very powerful and mostly well documented it seemed. However the initial built-in Flash implementation was rather frustrating as it included no modern actoinsscript scripting and was limited to simple animated decals for 3D. Viewpoint is Uber cool when combin 3D with Flash and Poser choreography :-) Has Viewpoint Flash imporved much or is it planned to soon? love to know what you've been doing anyway and any general description of kinds of conenctivity paths you';ve forged - Flash XML sockets to Viewpoint API dynmaically etc. So many apps couldbe buildt with Viewpoint player, but so far all only simple catalog stuff is what I've seen .Shame really... Would be great to integrate Flash-Viewpoint seamlessly into Skechup3D workflow http://www.sketchup.com/ thanks Jason ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ralph Caraveo" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Flashcoders mailing list" <flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com> Sent: Saturday, December 10, 2005 2:30 AM Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] Re: 3D in Flash We've done some working merging Flash and Viewpoint. This is a gangsta approach beware...there's quite a huge learning curve but we have a fantastic product...to be released in January. -Ralph _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
