The idea is to offer soon a basic working release, focussing at first on exports to AS3 and awd. Then gradually reintroduce some of the old features (enhanced) and of course add new ones. No ETA yet, but watch this space…

My two cents: the thing that makes my workflow the hardest is exporting animations. Apparently this is something that Flare does well, although I am using Blender and not 3DS Max, so I’m not sure about some of the details and I’m hacking my way through this process. I’m sort of learning many tools at once right now, so kindly disregard if I have it all wrong. But a streamlined workflow for exporting a Collada/3DS/Whatever file with animations and then marking the animation frames in Prefab (ala Unity), then exporting those files to AS3 or AWD would really open doors for fast content creation.

Do you have a rough stimation on when Away3D 4.0 could be expected? Or how could we kept on the loop when such thing occurs? I find i find myself checking the url, regularly(to be precise every day) to see any indications on a date, or such. Thanks,

That the synthax is not highlighted/coloured, this doesn’t mean the code is out of date like yogurt or dead doing nothing!

I would tripple check the urls, because if you see only white while your background swf is of another color, this means it actually runs but you do not see it… you’re almost there!
