Which 3D Engine to use? Futureproofish!

Hi all,
As a former 3D Artist Im really excited about the new molehill platform and finally seeing real 3d support for flash after the papervision revolution.
Here is my question though, out of the supported 3D engines for molehill, which one would be the best to dedicate my time learning:
Alternativa3D
Away3D
Coppercube
Flare3D
Minko
Sophie3D
Yogurt3D
Zest3D
Or should I go the route of Unity?
Im leaning the way of Away3d or Alternativa3D as they have been in the game the longest.  Any opinions are appreciated.

I'd go with Away3D. Even if Away3d had a commercial license I'd still do it I'm part of the away3d dev mailing list on google groups so I see every day how these people work to improve/build the engine and they certainly don't mess around or slack in any way. For example, I posted a bug (as there are many, since it's in alpha stage) related to the new flash player 11 capabilities it was fixed and applied in svn by the end of the day. People can sometimes think that open source means less support but in the case of Away3D that's not true. The community is strong and the support from the team is on the same level as that of a commercial product. They (the core team) make their money off of offering professional consultation and development services based on this open source software so they're just as committed to it as any commercial project. Anyway thats my 2 cents.

  • Which search engine is used in Firefox OS search?

    I want to know which search engine is used in the search bar of Firefox OS which I used to search for web apps.

    Hi Raiyad Raad,
    The Global Search feature in your Firefox OS device uses some of [http://everything.me/ Everything.me]'s implementations, while hosted by Mozilla.
    Please also note that, depending on your device, it may be possible to change the settings of the default search engine in the browser of your Firefox OS device.

  • User Agent of Adobe Webcapture 9.0? Which browser engine is used?

    What please is the User Agent of Adobe Webcapture 9.0 for Windows, please?
    Which browser engine is Adobe Web capture using if being launched through Adobe Acrobat Pro?
    Your help would be very much appreciated.

    Having same problem using:
    Adobe reader 9.3.2.163
    Windows 7 Home premium Version 6.1.7600, 64bit
    IE 8.0.7600.16385
    Possible solutions found:
    1.  Emailed document to myself from within the reader window (you can enable email button by right clicking on print icon, brings up a menu where clicking on "email" enables the email button on the menu, clicking on that brings up a window where you can send link or copy, send copy spawns an outlook message to yourself with the attachment already filled in, email).  Upon receipt, attachment can be saved (right click, save as).
    2.  Turn of IE protected mode, restart IE, view the pdf, the save icon is now active.  (Your computer is at risk using this option - if you turn it off - you probably should go back and turn protected mode back on again).
    Anyone have any other suggestions?  Just glad to find a work-around ... Would love Adobe to take a look and see if there is a solution to this!

  • Can you make a menu for the right-click search so that when I highlight text and search, I can choose which search engine to use?

    If you Highlight text you can right-click on it to pull up a short menu. One option is "Search x search engine for 'highlighted text'" Previously, the search engine selected would be whichever search engine was selected on the search bar, so Google or Amazon.com, etc. Because you can no longer change that selection before you search, the search engine is set to your default. Was an annoyance before, but now it's just a hindrance.

    Strongly recommend Context Search extension which will solve your problem

  • Which cache the Formula Engine will use in this case?

    Say that a MDX query contains:
    ❶a calculated measure defined in the targeted cube, ❷and another
    WITH MEMBER.
    Which cache the Formula Engine will use in this case:
    ❶Query,
    ❷Global, or
    ❸both (query & global)? and why? .... illustrate as possible please.

    Thanks Elvis ... but
    ❶ doesn't your reply, especially this part:
    ...But if we use WITH MEMBER keyword to define a calculated measure, it's the Storage Engine cache and not the Formula Engine cache....
    contradict with Microsoft's white
    paper: SQL
    Server 2008 R2 Analysis Services Performance Guide? ... check the figure below please:
    this is in page 36, where they are talking about the Formula Engine (or Query Processor, as they sometimes refer to it) types of cache. note the highlighted, they are saying that using the "WITH keyword within a query" forces the use of the "Query
    Context" which is one of the formula engine cache (as they said).
    Actually I've asked the main question because of this part of the same 36 page:
    I wanted to know
    ❷ what will happen to the calculated measures (those defined in the cube) if combined with another calculated members defined using the WITH keyword, in the same query? are they going to be recalculated even if they are already
    exist in the global cache?

  • How will Aperture treat Nikon raw images which have been enhanced using Capture NX2 software?  Some are cropped and "developed" and some have been enhanced using the control point technology.  I have NIK sw as a plug-in in aperture.

    How will Aperture treat Nikon raw images which have been enhanced using Capture NX2 software?  Some are cropped and "developed" and some have been enhanced using the control point technology.  I have NIK sw as a plug-in in aperture.

    Actually, there is a Nik/Nikon connection — but I am pretty sure it is irrelevant to the OP's question. The connection is that Capture NX2 was written as a joint venture between Nikon and Nik. (The name similarity is a coincidence.)
    Capture NX2 is a cool program that incorporates the features of Nik's Viveza and Nikon's Raw processing engine, along with some other powerful image adjustment features. It provides, like Aperture, a losses workflow. Unlike Aperture, the adjustments (Edit Steps in C-NX terminology) are saved in the original NEF file along with the un-altered raw data. Multiple versions can be saved in a single NEF.

  • Which XSLT Engine?

    Hi there,
    Which XSLT engine and XML Parser is used by default in SAP WEB AS 6.x?
    I assume from some docs I have read that this will be some INQMY SAP own's implementation but want to just confirm my assumptions.
    Thanks,
    Rob.

    Yes, you are correct, you can find them all in the inqmyxml.jar (which can be found for example in the additional-lib directory on your WAS server).
    All the parsing llibraries are based on the open source versions, but then there are apparently some inqmy specific extensions (why else would they have created their own libraries?).
    Cheers,

  • In Adobe Acrobat 9 which I have been using for a long time (Widows 7) says, You cannot use this prod

    In Adobe Acrobat 9 (Wndows 7) which I have been using for a long time now it says I cannot use it withoutv repairing.  It instructs me to uninstall & reinstall...

    I have not run into this yet with my AA9 and Win7, but have been seeing posts about it. I would try a repair before I would do an uninstall and reinstall. You might also turn off javascript for a bit in case there has been some javascript that has caused problems (ok, making wild guesses). If you do decide to uninstall, be sure to deactivate first, uninstall, run http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html, and remove any left over parts of the Acrobat folder. Then proceed to the reinstall and updates.
    There is a question about whether being able to use it is correct, or you are just getting some message that is a spam that somehow got into your system (again, a possible javascript issue). Besides turning off javascript, you could also try isolating the javascripts to moving them to a temporary directory and seeing if one is causing the problem.

  • Be grateful for your help with Photoshop Elements which I have been using for several years.

    Be grateful for your help with Photoshop Elements which I have been using for several years.  Does Elements need to have access to ‘My Pictures’ on Windows as when I remove Photos from ‘My Pictures’, Elements later, when backing up, gives a message that it is unable to ‘reconnect’ to the same picture on elements.  On other occasions when removing a photo from Elements catalogue I also get a similar message when backing up saying ‘unable to reconnect’.  1. Is there a relationship between Elements and My Pictures and is Elements dependant on    the Windows ‘My Pictures’? 2. Why does some photos in Elements in some cases cause them to multiply e.g. double; triple; quadruple; and on occasions even more?  Is there something I need to do to stop this or an easy way I can remove the multiples without spending hours doing it manually one by one?  Am I doing something wrong? My O/S is Windows XP SP2 and windows Vista on my Laptop.  I have been using Elements 5 and have just purchased Photoshop Elements 8.0. (Upgrade) and about to install it. Be grateful for any advice as I do enjoy using the program if only I can resolve this issue.  I am not a PC wiz and mainly use Elements to catalogue photos from which I compile collections and from them slide shows with music.  Any advice appreciated Sonny.t PS Have tried to post this previously but without success so hoping to see message appear and a +response

    The organizer doesn't care where you send your photos when you download them via the downloader or where they happen to be when you first bring them in if you use the Get Photos command, but once your pics are in the Organizer, you *must* move them from within organizer or it can't find them. You don't have to use My Pictures at all if you don't want to, but regardless of the folder where you put your photos, if you want them someplace else, you use organizer to do it.

              Does this -Dweblogic.interfaceAddress used only for multicast. Or this is also

              The other problem I am facing is when I restart the AdminServer in recovery mode
              it's not finding my WebApp servers, because my webapp servers are on public network

  • I am confused about something.  How do I read a book on my MacBook Pro?  I can't find the iBook app anywhere, which is what I use on my iPad.  The book I want to read is in my iTunes but I can't click on it.  My iBook library does not show up in iTunes.

    I am confused about something.  How do I read a book on my MacBook Pro?  I can't find the iBook app anywhere, which is what I use on my iPad.  The book I want to read is in my iTunes but I can't click on it.  Some of my iBooks show up in my iTunes but they are "grayed" out.  The only books that respond in iTunes are audiobooks and that's not what I'm looking for.  Is this a stupid question?

    Nevermind - I answered my own question, which is I CAN"T READ ANY BOOKS I purchased in iBooks on my MacBook Pro.  If I want to read on my mac I have to use Kindle or Nook.  Which means any book I've already purchased through iBooks has to be read on my iPad.  Kind of a drag because there are times when it's more convenient for me to read while I'm sitting with my Mac.
