Can I manipulate 3d object (.max, .3ds) in a Flash/AIR video game?

I have written Actionscript since AS1 back in the late nineties up through AS3 a couple of years ago, but I have not been doing any flash since CS4 came out. I want to create a video game that makes use of some 3d objects and am wondering a couple of things:
1) Does Flash PRO let me work with .max or .3ds models? For example, this one:
http://www.turbosquid.com/3d-models/soviet-howitzer-wwii-3d-max/269422
2) Will Flex permit me to work with such objects?
3) Do I need some other tool to work with these objects or translate them to some other format?
4) Would it be possible to manipulate the parts of such an object independently (e.g., the barrel moves when the gun fires) ? Or am I limited to manipulating each single imported object as one monolithic object?
Any help would be much appreciated.

1. you'll want to use a 3d framework like away3d or flare3d (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/stage3d.html);
2. don't know.
3. no
4. each 3d object can be manipulated independently of every other 3d object.

Can you Manipulate 3D object in Director Dynamically?

Greetings,
I am looking for some way to dynamically manipulate a 3d
object and am wondering if Director 3d has the ability to do this
and if so, if any of you want to take this on as a freelance
project? (this is a serious request on a cool project, not some
hokey offer)
I had first hoped that Flash could do it since I am more
familiar with flash, but I was wondering if Director can update a
3d object on the fly as it gathers new values for a number of
points in the 3d object. Can Director do this?
If you know of any person, any business that knows how to do
this PLEASE contact me to discuss more. It has been difficult for
me to understand the capabilites of Director 3D without speaking to
someone who is talented and competent as I am sure most of you are.
Cheers,
-i

model position, model rotation, model location, model scale,
model shader, etc. are all easily modified. the actual mesh that
makes up the model's shape can be changed with the meshdeform
modifier. however, these changes won't be permanent. the entire 3d
scene will be in it's original state everytime the movie starts. if
you want to save state you'll have to store the data defining the
attributes externally in some way and apply them at runtime.

Can not cast from object to int

Hi All,
I have the following bunch of code
Session session;
          session = getSessionFactory().openSession();
          Query query;
          int MaxPageId = 0;
          List list;
          try{
               query = session.createQuery("select max(emp.id) from EmpBean emp");
               list = query.list();
               MaxPageId = (int) list.get(0);
               return MaxPageId;
          catch(Exception e){
               System.out.println(e.getMessage());
          return MaxPageId;
The query executed successfully but when i get the max id in a integer variable by the following statement
MaxPageId = (int) list.get(0);
I get the following error "can not cast from object to int"
Please suggest for the same.
-Thanks

Cast to an Integer, not an int, and let autoboxing turn the Integer into an int.
int maxPageId;
maxPageId = (Integer) list.get(0);You can't cast objects into primitives.
Autoboxing isn't casting.
And use Java naming conventions. Local variables start with a lower-case letter.

Embed 3D Max (.3ds) file in web page

Can I embed 3D Max (.3ds) file in web page so that user can view the file inside IE?
Thanks for any comments.

hi jonathan,
I'm not into coding - I'm on the graphic side of the fence
But in WiFu you can add a lot of extra's trough Java and Javascript.
I don't know if that is what you are looking for ?
If you like you can send me your .3DS model and I will generate a html page that contains your 3D model - you can send it to [email protected]

anyone can help me on this?
thanks.

Can you see this image?
https://weblogs.sdn.sap.com/weblogs/images/252123862/trick2.JPG
The steps I did to get it were:
1. Insert a crosstab. In the first column put this formula
=[customer]
2. In the blue row cell do not put the city name directly but this formula:
="*London*"
3. Add 3 columns. In each blue cell (header cells) put this formulas: ="Paris", ="food"
, ="*milk*"
4. Now, in the white cells:
In the first column put this formula:
=Max([city_value] Where ([city_name]="London"))
In the second
=Max([city_value] Where ([city_name]="Paris"))
In the third column:
=Max([product value] Where ([product_name]="food"))
In the fourth column:
=Max([product value] Where ([product_name]="milk"))
Sadly this is not dynamic as you can see, but is the only way to achieve what you want to display.
Otherwise better follow the advice by the other posters.

Manipulate a object serialized file when the .class file is missing

I want to know if it is possible to recovery the object when its class file is missing! I guess it needs to manipulate the file and extract the values and ask user to name the values, after that, create a new class file for future use. However, I don't know how to manipulate the object serialized file. I really appreciate any hints you guys can give

I suppose if you created the class file, with the same name, package, and unique serial ID, fields, etc, it can be done.
Another option is to not use serialization if you are just trying to recover the data. Again you would need to know what the datatypes of the fields are to know what it is you are trying to read, how to parse serialized data, etc. Some Objects are easy to read, like Strings. The more complicated ones are the simple datatypes.

Is there inbuild Handler in weblogic using which i can get the MessageContext object

HI,
I need MessageContext object in my application but i dont want to use the Handler,As
there is AxisEngine in axis soap engine,is there any similar implementation in
weblogic.
AxisEngine.getCurrentMessageContext() we can get the MessageContext what about
in weblogic..any body any idea???

HI,
yeah i had to make use of Handler to get the MessageContext object and play with
that.

Can I send a Pages document to a client who can then manipulate or change them on their end?

You can export the Pages document to Word or text instead of Pages but I advise you to first save the document in the native Pages format. Still best is if you reciever get the applicationif you are going to do a lot of editing on documents.
About setting the computer etc. I don't know what the person was thinking off.

How can you move the objects from one server to another?

how can you move the objects from one server to another?

Hi,
Collecting objects for Transporting
1. rsa1->transport connection
2. left panel choose 'object type', middle panel choose 'infocube' and 'select objects'
3. then choose your infocube and 'transfer'
4. will go to right panel, choose collection mode 'manual' and grouping only 'necessary objects'
5. after objects collection finished, create request
6. If they are $TMP, then change the package.
7. When you click the Save on the change package, it will prompt for transport. Here you can provide an existing open transport request number, or if you like here itself you can create a new one.
8. You can check the request in SE09 to confirm.
Releasing Transport Request
Lets say you are transporting from BWD to BWQ
Step 1: In BWD go to TCode SE10
Step 2: Find the request and release it (Truck Icon or option can be found by right click on request #)
Note: First release the child request and then the parent request
Steps below are to import transport (generally done by basis )
Step 1: In BWQ go to Tcode STMS
Step 2: Click on Import queue button
Step 3: Double Click on the line which says BWQ (or the system into which transport has to be imported)
Step 4: Click on refresh button
Step 5: High light the trasnport request and import it (using the truck icon)

How can i convert an object to stream of chars or bytes?

Can I export solid objects into Illustrator / InDesign CS2 and maintain vector format

Can Adobe 3D export solid objects in vector format into Illustrator or InDesign CS2 suite?
I'm interested in taking solid 3D objects developed in Pro/E 2.0 and import from Adobe 3D into Adobe Illustrator & InDesign in vector format for page layout. I want to import solid objects in vector format and maintain color scheme and surface textures.
I'm running 3D trial version and can successfully import 3D objects (asm & prt files) solid views from Pro/E but can only export wireframe views from Adobe 3D Toolkit into Illustrator or InDesign (CS2). Solid objects first have to get rendered in a raster format before importing into Illustrator.
If this function is not supported does anyone have experience doing this using Quadraspace or Right Hemisphere 3D software?

Any help???? After 2 weeks I still can't learn from Adobe or Right Hemisphere people how to import solid objects in vector format into Illustrator with color and surface textures in place. All imported objects in vector format are converted to a wireframe or line format unless they are first rasterized.

How can I put 1 object in a photo in color but the rest in black and white?

I have iPhoto '08, and I have seen many photos that have interesting effects like the one I mentioned before. I would really like to know how I can allow the main object in the photo to remain its natural color, but change the rest of the picture to black/white or sepia.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You mean like this?
Click to view full size
This was created by Photoshop. But it's a little over the top for must of what we want to do. Photoshop Elements can do the same as can some of Larry's other suggestions. I've worked with PSE and it's an excellent editor with about 75% of PS's capabilities at about 1/7 the price.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

How can I create a object for a note?

Hi experts,
I need to apply the note 501905 but when I try in the SNOTE transacction I receive this error:
Object REPS Z_MRM_DELETE_PP does not exist; create it
Diagnosis
The SAP Note that you want to implement contains changes to an object that does not yet exist in your system.
SAP Notes contain only changes to objects that already exist. This means that the the system cannot automatically create new objects during the implementation of this SAP Note.
Procedure
1. Cancel the SAP Note implementationl.
2. Create an empty object REPS Z_MRM_DELETE_PP with the corresponding object editor.
3. Restart the SAP Note implementation.
How can I create that Object??
Thanks for the help!

Hi Carlos,
It says that you have to create a new program with a name Z_MRM_DELETE_PP.
Once you create and activate the program you can execute the SAP Note.
All this processure will be written in the SAP Note.
Please Go through the Note using below:
Step1: Use T.code SNOTE.
Step2: Use menu GOTO --> NOTE BROWSER. Provide the Note no and EXECUTE.
Step3: Double click on the displayed line.
Here you will get the information to do before implementing the note.
Go through all the documentation, and once you did all the development given in the note then you can implement the note.
Regards,
Sreekanth.

Can't see EJB objects in Application Navigator after migration

Hello
I can't see any objects in Application Navigator after migration from previous version of JDeveloper (9.2.0.5), in System Navigator view I can see all sources. Has somebody any idea what the reason is?

In the application navigator you should see one node per EJB, when you stand on it you'll see the various source files in the structure window.
