ActionScript 3.0 :: Open-source Flash 3D Engine Comparison?

Mar 26, 2009

For some reason, I'm having a hard time finding a recent, side-by-side comparison of the various pros and cons of the different open-source flash 3D engines, such as Papervision3D, Away3D, and Sandy3D. Specifically, I'm looking for comparisons in the areas of

ease of use (and documentation) performance (framerate with lots of polygons) stability (bugs, glitches, graphical artifacts) currency (for lack of a better word - is the project gaining or losing team and community members?)

language(s) used (is it in as2, as3, flash-player-10 as3?) features (lighting and shadows, import models and animations of various formats, click detection, collision detection)

This is reasonable, right? I don't want to essentially pick one at random, only to find myself in trouble later on. Working with papervision3D, I'm already frustrated by the documentation, or the in-name-only nature thereof - most functions only have headers listed and no descriptions of what they do. Personally, I like to be able to pour through the documentation and figure out how to do whatever I want, and I feel like I'm fumbling around in the dark, having to read the source and try to understand all the implementation details. Who's used multiple open-source flash 3D platforms?

Java :: Open-source P2p Videoconferencing In Flash?

Nov 30, 2009

I want to build a community website with videoconferencing functionality integrated. I would prefer to provide this from within the browser, so I'm looking for a Java- or Flash-based solution.Also, it would be nice to spare bandwidth by having the clients stream their audio and video data without using a central server (like the way Skype works, for example).Is there a reasonably mature open-source project that meets these criteria?

Possible To Develop Flash Application Using Only Open Source?

Nov 27, 2010

I want to create a Flash application but I do not want to pay the $700 for Flash Professional CS5 (neither to pirate it). I have been looking at previous questions here in SO and around the net for hints of free software allowing to develop flash apps.

From my current research, it seems the tools I need are:
1. FlashDevelop or similar to create and compile ActionScript code.
2. Pencil, Synfig or similar to create animation (is it possible to export to fla?
3. ?? to put everything together and compile a swf file.

My question is whether anyone has successfully followed a similar path to build a flash application using only open source. And better yet, any good web site with documentation on how to tackle such a task. I have looked at the Open Source Flash Projects page which contains a comprehensive list of flash related open-source projects and libraries...

Open Source Video Chat Server Not Using Flash

Apr 18, 2011

Reading "Building the realtime user experience" by Ted Roden, I was wondering how to go further and get some video chat web app up and running without the use of flash.

So, in terms of feasibility:

client-side: how can one access to cam and mic local streams not using flash ?
server-side: are there any existing frameworks or open source servers (something like red5) that focus on this kind of use cases ? If not, what do I need to build my own (lightweight) visio chat server ?

Javascript :: Free Web Based Open Source Flash Player?

Aug 30, 2010

I need to find a flash video player that is free and open source. I love flowplayer and jwplayer but we fit into their most expensive licenses. It will cost us over $1400 to license flowplayer for our use. We don't have that right now.

I just need a flash player with a basic javascript api that is truly free. I have been googling for hours and nothing so far.

It would be a huge plus if someone knows of a chromeless youtube player that uses the youtube as3 api. I don't have time right now to code an entire chromeless player complete with all the controls and a progress bar.
