Description:

We're going to take the Winter Wonderland demo from Zero fps to the 20's by practicing a few some less known and some well known tips and tricks concerning both the Flash Player and Papervision3D. We'll cover image preparation and rules, the Flash Player's idiosyncrasies and what makes Papervision3D really sing. The Winter Wonderland animation started out as slow as 2fps and ended up in the mid 20's after all of these techniques were applied. That leaves plenty of room for additional animations and bells and whistles later on! We'll take the source for Winter Wonderland and crawl through it together to squeeze every last FPS out possible.
