The Exhibition. May 20, 2008 at 1:24 pm
After a considerable time of development, we finally released the first beta-version of a project called “The Exhibition”. The reason behind it is to have our own little flash-lab at the agency we are working for (anyMotion), so we can enlarge and update it from time to time and have a place where we can show our flash-snippets and skills. So my buddies and me spent some time evolving those two rooms, with lots of AS3 experiments and a few games in it. Our intern task was to set up one room using away3D the other one by using papervision3D.

( Red room: realised in away3D )

( Blue room: realised in papervision3D )
In addition to “just” having two free walkable 3D-rooms, with collision detection and much more, we decided to install two different kinds of navigation behaviours. So in the red room, you navigate by using the arrow-keys on your keyboard, and in the blue room you use the joystick by dragging your mouse over it. We also added a help button, so you can refer to it every time you want to.
At least we added lots of clickable pictures and game-console´s into the rooms, so feel free to have a look at each painting and discover the AS3-experiment or game behind it. So let´s finish this post by saying we are in public beta with “The Exhibition” now. I hope we´ll find enough time in the future to expand the concept with more rooms and gadgets…

So for now, you can visit “The Exhibition” (launch) as is.
That´s all for the moment - Enjoy.



Hello,
I really enjoy project like this room. Actually I’m engaged in similar project using autodesk maya to model the scenario and papervision3d to import and code the model. Still, I’m having some issues with collision detection. I can’t figure out how to make the camera collide with the walls of my Collada room model. Here is the link:

can you illuminate my thoughts so I can get this to work smoothly? I would really appreciate your efforts to help me. Thanks.
