  Good stuff!
  Is it possible to map a jpg asset around a cylinder?
  Thanks Lars

• 12. Evan  |  24. October 2008 at 19:25

  Excellent work Lars. A very attractive engine for its efficiency and light weight. Recently I hoped to work with the 3DS format and SleepyDesign encouraged me to mod a 3DS parser to get it to go with ND3D. So I got it to go and you can read about it here:

  p.s. I really love your ribbon example

• 13. batchass  |  28. October 2008 at 12:00

  I have used your library on my webSite : ribbon audio visuals in my song player for a start (I am new to 3d!)

• 14. littleman8080  |  03. November 2008 at 18:38

  Is it possible to select 3D items, in order to interact with them?…

  I.e. to create a cube, and by rolling over, rolling out and clicking on it, by checking a depth-matrix, to get the ROLL_OVER, ROLL_OUT, MOUSE_OVER, MOUSE_OUT, and CLICK events.

  Also can you place 2D objects-MovieClips in different depths? (I.e. a 3D image (vector or bitmap or textfield) in frond of every 3D object, or in certain depth in the space, without loosing quality).

  If you can do that (or anyone do it first!) then probably you will be the reason for moving the current web-design to 3D web.. :D

• 15. Babatunde Adeyemi  |  05. November 2008 at 12:47

  Very beautiful looking examples. Will definitely give the engine a test. Thanks

• 16. lars  |  10. November 2008 at 16:08

  I will add interactive features (over, out, click, etc.) for meshed pretty soon, please be patient ;)

• 17. Philippe  |  21. December 2008 at 15:37

  I added (efficient) alpha transparency to bitmap textures, are you interested in contributions?

  I would like to contribute an Flash player 10 version, as it seems most of the Arrays could be converted to Vectors.
  How is to do?

  Great engine! Is there a forum or a google group related to nd3D? When i try the code below to align planes to a sphere, the planes are facing to the outside, while nearly the same code in PV3D is working out fine (center is an Object3D).
  for (var i = 1; i < sphere.vertexList.length; i++)
  {
  plane = new Plane(10,10,1,1,_cmat);
  plane.xPos = sphere.vertexList[i].x;
  plane.yPos = sphere.vertexList[i].y;
  plane.zPos = sphere.vertexList[i].z;
  var pVec:Vertex = new Vertex(plane.xPos,plane.yPos,plane.zPos);
  pVec.normalize();
  center.xPos = pVec.x;
  center.yPos = pVec.y;
  center.zPos = pVec.z;
  plane.lookAtTarget(center);
  renderList.push(plane);
  }

  beautiful!!!

• 23. lars  |  09. April 2009 at 09:03

  Just rotate your planes for now: plane.rotateVerticesY(Object3D.deg2rad(90)); The lookAt function needs a bit of polishing ;)

  Hi,

  excellent work, is there a way to add a textfield to the Dynamic Meshes & MeshExtrudeTest above to get a kind of ticker tape news feed?

  Thanks mate

• 29. Georg Graf  |  18. September 2009 at 12:39

  Hi there,
  i think your Mouse3DEvent is working the wrong way. It gets always the element, thats behing the to seen element. (Did this as an example with many planes that are ordered like an cover flow).

  If fixed this in the Renderer.as the following way:
  I duplicated the for-loop, and reversed it and put there the checkMouse detection.
  This means, i have this two for-loops:

  for(faceIndex = 0;faceIndex = 0; faceIndex–)
  which includes only the detection.

  then it works.
  Maybe you can fix this in your next relase.
  Greets.

• 30. Georg Graf  |  18. September 2009 at 12:40

  Oups, sorry: ment this two loops:
  for(faceIndex = 0;faceIndex = 0; faceIndex–)

• 31. Georg Graf  |  18. September 2009 at 12:40

  Okay, seems that this blog kills my two posted for loops ..

• 32. Georg Graf  |  18. September 2009 at 12:48

  Sorry, for all this spam:
  theres an easier way to fix this:
  Just insert this lines:
  
curFace = faceList[faceList.length - 1 - faceIndex];
curMaterial = curFace.material;

  before the detection:
  
// check for mouse interaction
if(!currentHighlightedFace && (curMaterial.isInteractive || curFace.meshRef.isInteractive)){
  at line 377 in Renderer.as

  I found that, the nd3d engine can only create single layer. I can’t find out any container of 3d object.

• 35. Michax  |  28. October 2009 at 13:13

  What kind of license is over this candy ? I just love performance and some neat features. Keep going. I hope you will made from this some good incomes :) Sincerly, good luck!

  If i can suggest something. It will be greate if you could add some simple pivot setup function. For everybody who have problem with for example rotating around one of edge, you could use now translateVertices function, to move center of object to any place you want.

  Anyhow, good work !

• 36. HBrO  |  05. November 2009 at 15:22

  What an excellent 3d engine.
  But could you supply the newest version for us?I downloaded your engine in google code.I cannot find some classes such as BitmapMaterial,SWFMaterial,and so on.
  Thanks a lot!

• 37. HBrO  |  05. November 2009 at 16:11

  I found the code in the google code.
  Thanks for your attention again.
  Your 3d engine gets the best balance of effects and capability in all of the 3d engines I found.Give you a praise once more.

  Firstly, I am really digging ND3D,
  Looking for a way to bring in an array of mesh data to build custom primitives: [ [ax,ay,az],[bx,by,bz],[cx,cy,cz],[dx,dy,dz]… I’m finding it a bit tougher than planned.

• 41. DrPunchman  |  04. March 2010 at 06:31
