Hiya, we've built a similar texture mapped text effect on our new website, currently in beta. Here's an example :
http://www.sebleedelisle.com/?p=18 It's actually quite complex to stretch text like that... it may be easier to just treat the text as always facing towards you, then there's no need for a perspective distortion. But you'll probably still need to convert the text image into a bitmap first, otherwise it may take a while to render all those words all over the place... And then there are all the rotations to calculate... so generally speaking, a complex area to get into, but there are some good tutorials on kurupa, or else attend my 3D session at Flash on the Beach (http://flashonthebeach.com) and i'll tell you all about it :-) cheers Seb Lee-Delisle http://sebleedelisle.com On 13/11/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi I know there's a surplus of threads on 3D and 3D frameworks for Flash but what I am after is a spcific treatment used in the RSS Visualizer Quartz screen saver for OSX Here is a screen shot: http://www.mactech.com/articles/mactech/Vol.21/21.05/QuartzComposer/index.html I'd like to reproduce this using actionscript... Can anyone point me in the right direction to get started?
