Creating a 3D Room in Flash Catalyst (in 6 lines)

January 23, 2010

Building a 3D Room

Creating a 3D room could never be easier than in Flash Catalyst…and with only writing six lines of code. Now of course it takes more than 6 lines of code to create a 3D room…about 80 using Flash Catalyst. But 74 of them are auto-generated for you. It’s all click and drag and once you bring it into Flash Builder…you just need to add 6 lines of your own to make everything operational.

Check out the demo below:

What’s Important Here!!!

(1) It was all created with only 80 lines of code (74 auto-generated)
(2) It uses very little system resources…your computer doesn’t run hot or slow down
(3) The images are easily replaceable…so create as many rooms as you want
(4) Development time is decrease by a factor of 10
(5) You are not limited by Viewport size or anti-aliasing concerns
(6) It’s just great fun!
