M3D, Mascot Capsule 3D porting to Actionscript 3.0, next candidates for 3DEngines

One day several years ago after Actionscript 3.0 released, I've been believed the time will coming someday if this 3D engines will be porting to Actionscript.

Mascot Capsule 3D and Mobile 3D Graphics has been used as technologies  for Mobile 3D programming for the Java™ Platform Micro Edition on Sony Ericsson feature phones.

This 3D Engine has been designed from the ground up for mobile devices,taking into account limited memory, performance and control interfaces.
It completely abstracts the underlying operating system and device hardware, allowing game developers to develop once on Windows and then deploy to multiple mobile platforms. Includes complete support for multi-channel audio, 2D and 3D graphics,
a powerful and fully configurable 3D scene graph, collision checking,
physics simulation, networking with both Bluetooth and IP based networks.

It will be strong candidate for competing againts with existed 3D Actionscript engine (PV3D or Away 3D or Sandy3D).

Yesterday one of showcase has been published. Look at ecodazoo.com, this site strongly suspected use M3D engine, similar with Mascot Capsule 3D.

It could be next step 3D Flash website interface just begin, and I think web people will follow.

Further info about M3D see www.touchtao.com
Mobile Capsule 3D see Mobile 3D

In my humble opinion, correct me if i'm wrong!

Buzzword, Awesome online web processor..

A nice Flex application for word processing over web has been released on http://buzzword.acrobat.com.

I spent a little time today for playing around it and found some nice features. It provide capabilities such importing a *.doc files, and successful for rendering table, enable history operation (undo, redo), and other rich text processing operations.

Other good thing about it that Adobe has a whole set of Development APIs that can be used in Flex/AIR to provide such capabilities into our applications.

Be careful with Merapi..!!



Everybody should be careful with Merapi, The most active Vulcanoe in Indonesia.



Perhaps Adam Flater should permit to Mbah Maridjan and may ask with this caretaker of Mt. Merapi about how dangerous is the disaster for him.


Mbah Maridjan the one-dollar-a-day job of 'Merapi gatekeeper'.
"you must be careful playing with Merapi"


But Adam Flater is too late and maybe he didn’t know how important "area and potential hazard mapping"

I'm so sorry, this is a bad joke right?
I hope and praying for Adam and his family is okay, and wish he come back soon and continue developing this awesome project.. I can't wait to play with it!! :)
