The quick answer to this is sure, the genuine question is what that remote will look like and how it will interact with the gaming console. Hardcore games will never ever give up the remote command fully simply because it presents way to considerably precision and command that cannot be compared to any movement based mostly technique controls at this level in time.

He hasn’t posted the source yet and rather than wait for him to give up the goods, I figured I’d try to break down what he showed in his demo and replicate it. I fought my way through the ActionScript Physics Engine (APE) and PaperVision3D projects that he said he used.  I went with the code in the PaperVision3d trunk repository which I think is the 1.5 version.  (I would love to know the details of the differences between 1.5, 2.0/great white, and the effects branch - all I really found were lots of demos of each but no real summary of where each of these versions is going). After messing with the code in my spare time last week, I’ve come up with a demo. Make no mistake: McCune is Flex bad ass and my TileUI clone has fewer features than his. However, you can select, lasso, group, stack, spiral, drag, resize, unstack, remove and change the perscpective on the tiles below. And best of all, you can view the source.

I try mentally to replace Flickr images with playing cards... Doug, looks like you are writing yet another on-line poker application :) Valery Just awesome!

I just found out that SAP is going to send me to Flex 360, and I noticed you will be speaking there...looking forward to seeing this in person. Also, we might have to do a follow up beer drinking session inspired by the Thirsty Bear. :) -ewH @Doug – too cool man.

The app is going to allow developers to create their own modules that define how to load in tiles and what those tiles will look like. So far I've just got a flickr module working, but the idea is to make more modules. For example, an AIR module will allow you to drag files from your desktop and drop them into the app, a facebook module might let you load your facebook friends and pictures, etc etc The tiles in the video are images returned from searching flickr.

I have always thought that BumpTop had huge potential, so it's awesome to see you doing something similar in flash. What kind of objects are in the tiles? Are they embedded .swf files or are does each tile represent some other type of object/file? Cheers, ewH dude, that’s sweet…congrats!

Basically it maps a 2d physics simulation to 3d space. @Augie - I'm going to try to integrate with as many OS actionscript projects as I can. Imagine swinging the Wii controller and knocking around tiles... :) @Jeroen – yeah, get a faster computer :P
