On a rare occasion, instead of posting code and experiments, I like to post some things I’ve done at my job. Especially when it illustrates a practical use of some of my earlier experiments. So here we go! For a project for the University of Ghent at Nascom (via Saatchi & Saatchi), I had to create…
I was recently invited to create a cloth modifier for AS3Dmod by Bartek Drozdz, similar to the 2D version I did earlier. In the unlikely case you haven’t heard about it before, AS3Dmod is a cool modifier library compatible with the most popular 3D Acionscript engines (Papervision3D, Away3D, Sandy and Alternativa3D). To put it…
A project I’m currently involved in inspired me to completely rewrite my old Curtain class into something more stable and versatile. Using a character physics method based on Verlet integration, and adding some properties for friction and gravity, it resulted in a 2D cloth simulation (at least after some updates I just did since I needed…
Something I’ve been thinking about doing for a long time is imitating real artistic media, in particular watercolours. Not because I’m an avid watercolour painter (last time I’ve touched them was in kindergarten), but because I think it’s an interesting dynamic. Since it is mainly fluid dynamics, the idea resurfaced after my previous fluid sims.…
Potentially confusing post warning! At my job, I often have to work with font embedding. Often, that just happens in Flash IDE as part of assets exported to a swc. Not only because it’s convenient sometimes, but also because I’ve found embedding through Actionscript behaves… well… strange occasionally, especially when using thin or extra light…
