I just posted the info on Papervision’s Blog - Hope to see you there!

Flash on Tap or Spinal Tap?

5 Sep 08:18
well, I guess that depends on the speakers you end up seeing Of course, the beer sampling and getting together with all that is Flash-goodness could make up for the “spinal” taps you endure. I really can’t wait - I’ve missed quite a few conferences between … crap, when was the last one [...

Text messaging - retarded.

24 Aug 08:26
Ok, it’s one thing to watch tweeners wet themselves over their new cell phones and their first text messages, it’s quite another thing to watch a teenager squeal with sophomoric tones that only a dog could hear, and it’s yet another level of “idiocy” to see some teen/twenty something texting while driving. I’ve nearly [...

microsoft: Did they have a hand in it? I’ll say…probably.

I was just heading over to Hank’s article on the situation with EcmaScript 4.0. The short of it is: it’s been drop kicked for good, leaving Adobe with decisions to make. As you read, Adobe had put alot into being standards compliant with AS3 and for obvious good reasons. The speculation [...

Flash on Tap conference

11 Aug 22:28
You know, i’ve been to quite a few Flash conferences ( not as many as Grant or Keith however ), and I’ve often wondered what it’d be like to put on a conference - what would I do with it? How would it be different and, for love of God - why another one?! I [...

BaywoodGallery - a little somethin’ for my parents

11 Aug 05:34
You know it’s pretty sad when your parents have to beg. But it’s shameful when they’re begging you for work you do on a daily, if not a nightly basis! So, since they’re heading out to do a show in California in a week, I had to get something out there. I’d intended [...

Papervision3D - fixes to VirtualMouse, Interactivity and using UIComponents

25 Jul 03:34
First off, I'll just say that this kind of work is enough to cause you to go barking mad. Just set yer hair on fire and start running the halls naked now. I'll start off by archiving what I found, then go into "best practices" on how to create a plane using a movieclip that [...

Online Papervision3D training - Nov 8th. Optimization Techniques

24 Jul 05:34
We’re doing one more of these before the year’s end and won’t likely do it again until February 2009.  We weren’t going to do it at all, but we’d had a great response to do one more, so we’re squeezing this one in before the holidays really kick in. I’m taking a break from traveling for [...

Online Papervision3D courses - Optimization techniques

21 Jun 01:18
*UPDATE* Apparently adobe scheduled maintenance this saturday during the scheduled time for the course (which blows tremendously -they could have asked if anyone was doing something during those hours) I guess it could be argued that no time is a good time, but I'd argue back that midnight would be 90% better option I'm willing to [...

Well, Go3D is official - We need base 3D classes that all engines can use

20 May 05:36
What turned out to be just something to finally scratch a strict typing itch i'd had with tweening has no become and full blown side project. Not only did Moses get me started, but Graeme Asher and John Lindquist fueled the fire as well. Graeme's been working on Tween3DCamera and John's been [...
