With the rumbles of doing a 3D flash project at work it is time for me to start flirting with this gimmic. How to build, rather fake, a 3D environment in the decidedly 2D world that is flash. More on our upcoming 3D project as and when I am allowed to divulge. But rest assured it is good. The folks over at Papervision have created a really good 3D engine for flash with some great demos. Check out their site and look out for the Rhino demo. But what is interesting with this panorama is how to create this effect. Follow the link here to see a superb panoramic effect created in a 2D flash model but replicating the real world very well. If you click on the image at any point and hold your cursor down you can see how they made the image work. Literally by chopping the image up into triangles and pasting them together. Ingenious.
