Flash :: MovieClip In Perspective?
Jun 1, 2011
I would like to have a MovieClip that has a bit of depth. I can't use rotationX, rotationY or rotationZ because I have to use Flash CS3. The first image is what I have now, a flat movieclip. The second is what I should have.
I already tried using a matrix, but that didn't work. I posed a question about it, and there somebody sugested that I should use a 3D engine to get the result I want.

I've noticed there is something in AS3 that allows "shearing or skewing" of an object, but I was wondering if it's possible to do the equivalent of what Photoshop refers to as "transform>>perspective"

The windows are in a mess now, is there a button/menu that can reset the view so that it looks like what it's like originally?

The following is entirely a math question. As we know, PerspectiveProjection delivers perspective transformations in 3D represented by the interdependent values of fieldOfView and focalLength according to the following formula:
focalLength = stageWidth/2 * (cos(fieldOfView/2) / sin(fieldOfView/2)
Q: How to get the visible on-screen size of the DisplayObject (Cube on the above-linked image) to which PerspectiveProjection has been applied? A more thorough description and illustrative code on the issue in ActionScript 3 lacks functionality for visible bounds of DisplayObject.

I'm in the planning and learning stages of building a facebook game. For the past year my foremost question has been, "Flash or HTML5?". Rather than try to decide the answer to that, I thought I would give the markets for both some more time to mature and learn how to design the game and how to manage the server element.
Over the last year I've devoured thousands of pages of text concerning game development and business development, along with getting a solid footing in AS3, python, php, C# and javascript. So, I'm most interested in picking a system that is best for the job rather than, for example, starting off assuming the game logic will be in python because that's what I enjoy most.
The game is at its core a strategy game and I plan to use many mobile phones extensively in addition to the standard facebook "invite all your friends" features. The graphics won't be flashy and will in most places be rather flat because of the thematic elements, rather than 3d isometric like farmville or other flash facebook games.
So from a technological perspective HTML5 doesn't have any real advantage that I can see over flash, and neither does flash have any real advantage over HTML5. If you see that one has a clear advantage over the other then I would be happy to hear that in your comments.
I have five primary questions that I need your opinion on:
1) Which platform makes better sense for building a facebook game considering the future market trends?
2) Which platform has better inherent elements to help prevent cheating? (like flash being compiled into a .swf vs javascript being in plain text)
3) Which platform would be most attractive to the best game development talent for future hires?
4) Which platform is easiest to take technology from one game and use it for other future games? (like developing isometric graphics in flash)
5) Which platform is easiest to develop with a team?

I didn't know where this should go; I thought this was the best place. In Actionscript 2.0 I'm trying to draw the shelf of a closet (wall-to-wall) but I don't know how to.

I've tried using beginBitmapFill() and drawing the polygons but the texture doesn't look right because it lacks the correct depth.

I'm attempting to create a dynamic perspective shadow system in Flash 9 (AS 3) that would have the following constructor:
ActionScript Code:
public function PShadow(mcClipToShadow:MovieClip, nAngle:Number = 45, nDistance:Number = 20, nAlpha:Number = 90, nBlur:Number = 10, nXOffset:Number = 0, nYOffset:Number = 0)
{
//do stuff
}
The function would duplicate the mcClipToShadow MovieClip to use as the base shadow, apply a 100% black tint, set the alpha to nAlpha, and apply a blur filter with Blur X = Blur Y = nBlur. Then a transformation Matrix would be applied that would skew the shadow sprite so that it was cast in the nAngle direction with length nDistance.
The only part that I'm having trouble with is solving the math for the Matrix. I've played a lot with the swf's in your tutorial to better understand how the matrix manipulates things, but I'm still having troubles doing the math properly. My goal is to simply plugin the variables from the constructor into the Matrix constructor and the proper shadow will result.

I am converting a Flash Web App to a Javascript(HTML and CSS) Web App. I have a cube rotation animation working but I have a problem with the perspective.My Problem: I am not sure which CSS attribute I should use to replicate the Flash versions perspective(please see the 2 images below). The 2 below images where taken while the cube rotation was occuring and you can see the difference in the perspective(the 2nd image is too wide and should look like the first). You can see a working example here(Note it only works onThe first image was taken from the flash application and displays the CORRECT perspective(that I am trying to achieve in CSS).The 2nd image is taken from my CSS, Javascript and HTML web app and the cube rotates with the INCORRECT perspective. What CSS attribute do I change in order to achieve the above images cube perspective?

I sent an email to pom regarding a tutorial that he wrote, but the email was bounced and he hasn't replied to my PM. I have followed both of pom's tutorials that involve experiments with perspective in Flash, but I have encountered a problem while attempting to duplicate a movie clip symbol in the second tutorial ([URL]). I have a single instance of the "ball" movie clip symbol appearing at random positions. However, I cannot seem to successfully duplicate the symbol instance at random positions using the loop that pom provided:

How to convert 3d point to 2d point? I've found next formula in Internet(camera is situated in origin)
[Code]....
But these formulae give me strange result when z are less than zero(z<0) I need build line from A(100,100,100) to B (100,100;-100) As you can see these equations give really strange result when I try to convert B point in 2D dimension

I've tried in vein to understand displacement maps; I can find nothing on "The Internet" that teaches me what I need to learn. Now I'm looking to all you smart-types to solve my problem for me! All I want to is take an image (a rectangle) and make it look like it's going off into the distance (trapezoid-like), getting smaller from left to right. This doesn't even need to animate, I just need two states: straight-on and trapezoid-like -- think iTunes album art browser minus the bells & whistles. I know this can be accomplished with a displacement map, but I know not how to get 'er done.

So I am learning AS3 slowly.First project in it.I am having some troubles. (I know I need to learn to code class based, working on it, familiarizing myself with some of the basics before I change my style completely).I have set up my stage to have four instances of a movieclip named silverScreen0 - silverScreen3.Each of those has a content layer in it which I am dynamically loading an identical swf.I then have a mask I put over each clip so that it only show a specific area.
-First issue comes up that hte fourth mask seems to move/distort on load, as you'll see in the swf.
-Second issue comes up when the loaded swf comes in ... the mask seems to shift if the swf has a motion animation, click the second white circle above chapter1 to see this.
-Third issue comes up when I move the content layer inside of the silverScreen# clip ... the mask seems to move as well. No example of this but if you download the source files you can see it.[code]

I want to tween a movieclip so it changes from squared to trapezoid. Just imagine a text paragraph distorted like the scrolling text in the beginning of Star Wars movies.It would be easy to make the shape and then distort it, but what I want is to tween from undistorted to distorted and it seems that normal tweening only allows skewing, rotation and resizing.Since a picture is worth a thousand words, this is what I want to do (the dog is not the movieclip I want to distort, just an example):This is easy in Photoshop (CTRL+T and then pick a corner with SHIFT+CTRL+ALT) and also in edition time in Flash, but I want the distortion to happen in execution time so it looks like the movieclip is standing up and then falls back.

When I put some clips on different part of the scene, and modfify their rotationY I would like see them with the local global point of view. Unfortunately, if one clip on the left of scene and another on the right, the 2 clips won't have the same view. How to do to see them similar?

This project I am working on needs a top view on a snowstorm. I was thinking I can use code similar to a starfield coming at you, and then modifying it so that the objects start from around you and fall towards the center. (opposite direction). However, when I change the code the way I believe I need to, I get the right thing to happen but not to regenerate. It happens only once, and once they reach the center, they don't recreate around the edges of the screen. Here is the code I am using from a simple starfield tutorial:
_global.ppDist = 700;
_global.speed = 50;
//update function to handle perspective projection and scaling

Is there such a thing as taking a screen, copying it to bitmapData and then angling it as if in 3D perspective... in AS2 ? I know AS3 in CS4 can do this, but I am stuck working in AS2. I've used Bitmapdata before, but only for 2D manipulations.
