Flash Player 10 meets 3D
It have been over one month since last post, but there were so many things that needed to be done :) In this post i will just drop a line about 3d in new Flash Player 10. Recently Im writing some experiments, tring to understand how 3d in fp10 works. Doing this I also came across one very interesting site - http://wonderfl.kayac.com. At this page You can write and build Your AS3 code. But lets get back to 3d...
Writing 3d 'worlds' using flash drawing API is hard, because 3d philosophy is a bit twisted. This post shows how to manage multiple sprites in a 3d as3 world. You will see how to create 3d spiral, that can be used as an image gallery. To create 3d spiral from a set of DisplayObject's we need to perform these steps :
- place objects on a circle in XZ plane
- add some shift in Y direction
- append some additional rotation (just to look better)
There is also one important step that need to be done. Flash Player doesn't do any Z sorting of DisplayObjects. Drawing order is based on objects depth (child index) not on its Z coordinate.
This is how it works.
Flash player (ver. 10.0.0) is required to see this content. Please update to newest possible version.

Hello,
when I copied the code and try to execute as a document class basic vector itself is unable to create.
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Vector.
How o execute or impliment this code?
