The last couple of weeks have been characterized by developing 3D Metaballs most of my time. Thereby I came across a lot of interesting basic approaches regarding Flash Player10 based 3D, triangulations, drawTriangles and such. As a sample: Handling triangles/-meshes by comparing PV3D and Flash Player10 capabilities (using Petri´s great LinkedGrid class). Thereto I created […]

I can´t help doing it! Once again I´m working on another 3D Metaball plaything since a couple of weeks now and it turns out becoming incredible fast and performant. At the moment I can bind and calculate up to ~50 ‘balls’ without having any headaches, it still renders the whole system in the region of […]

In the last days I spend a few minutes generating L-sytems and tried to achieve some performant results like this one. So having this pattern of pretty fast generated hilbert curves I thought it´s time to mash up things a bit. First, let´s create another 3d primitive using Flash Player 10´s graphic.drawTriangles method, a cylinder, […]
