Some time ago I promised to share the source code behind some of the Kenneth Elgaard website. I have had some requests since then, and I’m sorry it took so long, but now I have the code ready!
The advantage in this solution (in my opinion) is the ability to utilize Flash Player 10 native 3d, instead of standard 3d engines. Not that Aways3D, Papervision etc. aren’t great, but for really simple stuff (like this), it’s nice to be in control of all the code, and of course not add extra kb. to the filesize. Another benefit is the ability to resize these 3d objects runtime, in this example the cube is always the same width/height as the entire stage – just like the website I did for Kenneth Elgaard. (Please notice though that the cube is pushed back on the z axis – that’s why it doesn’t fill out the screen!)
This example also uses simple shading on the sides.
Check this example out and try moving the cube around and scaling the browser window.
