Five3D goes AS3.

April 14th, 2008 by makc :: General, Resources, en :: RSS 2.0

Two months after unofficial port, Mathieu Badimon finally took his time to make official release today, along with typography tools.

Spinning cube

This is certainly one of most compact engines (and so is very easy to start working with), with some unique features, such as 3D vector drawing and text support. Now, rewritten in AS3, it is probably fast enough to handle very complex scenes, but also very limited dynamically because of fixed rendering order.

This release comes with promise of v2.1 in coming weeks, so let’s see what comes next.

    Not sure if this was added only in v2.1 but setting yourContainer.childrenSorted = true should take care of the fixed rendering order of the cube.
