Papervision 2 XML Gallery

[rai_kane3]

I have finished working on my papervision xml gallery, as usual you will need to svn download the greatwhite version.

this gallery does have a next and previous button which only appear if you have more than 12 images, I have been a bit lazy you will need to update the xml path in the GalleryController class, normally I would add swfobject var but could be bothered just wanted to get the basics done.

ohps forgot you will need the as3 tweener class here (http://code.google.com/p/tweener/)

looks good. I like the video carousel on your blog too!

We need tutorials on this, PV3D tutorials.

[rai_kane3]

I will probably be doing some new tutorials soon I'm trying to get the backend for the tutorials sections finished on my site and will put together something.. however lee brimlow has done some tutorials on papervision. here (http://www.gotoandlearn.com/).

I'm hoping to move over to Away3D which is more powerful than Papervision and has a few more functions, regretfully at the moment you cannot have interactvity on video and the video has to be streaming as all objects are converted to sprites, so there is a limit to interaction at the moment.

I'm still trying to get my head around PV3D but for now you might want to check out http://papervision2.com/

It is a nice try!

[saxx]

Ah this is cool, if only the image zoomed in all the way

[REEF·]

Thats kind of like, not needing Flash and using GIF's that are clickable to make a cute website instead.

Yes, saxx you could. Papervision is not an external program as far as I know, it is actionscript.

[rai_kane3]

saxx if you look at the code its just a .z variable position to move the item closer to the camera.

I wish I wasn't so bogged down at work I would be doing some tutorial on PV3D however after becoming frustraited with PV3D's limitations so everyone should be looking at Away3D which is the papervision class extended by some chaps, it's a bit more hardcore but my god it does the job I will be spending some time learning it.

check it out (http://away3d.com/)

yeah ... Away3D is the real deal ...

[lukasyno]

Simple....

I don't think so ...

Away3d 2.2 is in the Pipe ... So i dont think they're gonna merge ...

[randomagain]

wow, I've done that two:P,

[rai_kane3]

The link is now fixed

however the GalleryView is as complete as it ever will I never created this as a template/base class its just a project I put together quickly if anyone wants to extend it they are welcome to (as long as they post the upgrade back here for everyone to share ;)).

There are a few nice tutes for PV on Lee Brimelow's GotoAndLearn.com.
One behavior I would include on rai_kane's is a full centered zoom, as mentioned, and then click zoom image to revert to thumbnail.
I've seen a PV image gallery in Monster template. Quirky =P

im finding the more & more I work with papervision the more problems I find, after I finish my current work project im moving to away3D which is way more robust but a bit more hardcore 3D and im not that good at 3D the math messes my head up. Papervision has memory leak problems, interactive issues, its so memory and cpu heavy, plus for basic stuff flash player 10 should be sufficiant.
