The Vimeo team gave us a great tool to play with.

This Video player is called Moogaloop and seems to be a good tool to keep on our shelf. It even has a Javascript API.
You can get the swf here. Apparently is the same file the vimeo’s embed code uses.
More info to be found at the Moogaloop project’s section on Vimeo.

Well, we managed to get out our first game.

Inspired by soulwire‘s Shufle Grid Class we present you PUZZLE NO TATSUJIN.

I saw this link about some crop circle , and inspired me to do this in flash, a simple PI viewer.This sample is showing 29 decimals, but it can be easily configured for more.The engine used is Five3D + a Wedge class made by pixelwelders specially for this 3D engine .

“The Ancient Egyptian civilization is usually credited with establishing the division of the night into 12 parts, although there were many variations over the centuries. Astronomers in the Middle Kingdom (9th and 10th Dynasties) observed a set of 36 decan stars throughout the year. These star tables have been found on the lids of coffins of the period. The heliacal rising of the next decan star marked the start of a new civil week, which was then 10 days. The period from sunset to sunrise was marked by 18 decan stars. Three of these were assigned to each of the two twilight periods, so the period of total darkness was marked by the remaining 12 decan stars, resulting in the 12 divisions of the night. The time between the appearance of each of these decan stars over the horizon during the night would have been about 40 modern minutes. During the New Kingdom, the system was simplified, using a set of 24 stars, 12 of which marked the passage of the night.” (wikipedia)

The project that I’m currently working on requires loading a lot of changing data that did not follow a certain pattern. I had to wrap text on some images, so I dove right in and chose to use an XML file with CDATA and img tags.

Fortunately for us,  Grant Skinner showed some really cool uses of modulus in AS3. Very useful for anyone who doesn’t have a serious  programing background. He mentioned he will continue a whole series of code snippets, so it’s a good idea to keep an eye on his blog .

Sothink has just released the sothink SWF decompiler for Mac. The interface is clean and friendly just as you would expect from an usual mac software.It has all the features that the windows version has. Supports both ActionScript 2.0 and 3.0. This software can be very helpful for any junior flash designer or developer, but keep in mind that it should be used for learning purposes only.
