Thanx Micheal! The book was a group effort, but the main contributors were myself, Richard and Greg so equal credit goes to each of us. we'll no doubt publish a full breakdown of the contents on away3d.com in the coming days, but as a general overview the book is intended for beginner - intermediate level. The recent tidying of the source for the 2.5 / 3.5 release go hand in hand with some of the principals clarified in the book, so it may even be useful for seasoned Away3D'ers interested in going over the fundamentals of the engine.
both us and uk amazon sites are currently registering in stock, and if you are based in a further flung location you can always buy the online pdf version from friendsofed.com. reviews welcome! cheers Rob On Mon, May 10, 2010 at 5:30 PM, richardolsson <[email protected]> wrote: > Cheers! > > On May 10, 4:21 pm, Ralph Brooker <[email protected]> wrote: > > I just received the two copies I had pre-ordered from Amazon.
