Hi
Trying to recreate the effects used on the landing page.
Can anyone point me to either the source files or tutorials that explain how to create these transitions?
Can they all be achieved using the Lite version?
Tutorials or at least source files for transitions used on landing pageSoftware: Away3D Lite |

Whenever they are in their side-by-side position, they make up the flat surface on which the picture is displayed. It might be a good idea to simply release the source code (we’ll consider that) but unfortunately there is little time for us to write a full tutorial on a 3.6 topic when our hands are full of 4.0 development. :S |

I can explain the process though. A bunch of cells are created in a grid with equal dimensions. The cells are stored in an array and their front and back face UVs are altered to emulate that of a plane occupying the space of the grid. The cell class simply extends cube and contains some animation effects using tweenlite to rotate backwards and then back again. These animations are typical tweenlite effects with several steps. In the middle step, the cell’s material is changed in order to flip the images. To animate, the grid sweeps the cell grid and calls each cell’s animate function with a slight delay on each, hence producing the sweep animation effect. That’s basically it, there’s not much more to it beyond the details of the implementation of course. Please let me know if that helps, otherwise I will try to produce a simplified version for exhibition, although I can’t guarantee when. |
