FlashSandy Flash 3D Engine



http://www.flashsandy.org/

Really great demo!

Try this! http://www.flashsandy.org/demos/protopop_walk


This 3D engine main features are :

  • Flash player 7 to 9 compatibility.
  • Both MTASC and Macromedia compilers compliant for AS2 and Flash CS3 and FlexBuilder for AS3 versions.
  • Several 3D primitives, allowing fast and parameterized object creation without any 3D modelisation knowledge.
  • Advanced and easy object management allowing some fantastic possibilities during your creations (scaling, rotation, translation, tween, etc.)
  • Advanced camera management ( rotation, motion on linear or bezier-curve path, movements, etc.)
  • Complex object loading thanks to the .ASE and .WRL files parser , but also Collada and 3DS files for AS3, (files generated by several 3D object modeling packages such as 3D Studio Max or Blender)
  • Material system to easily change your objects appearance. Several material are available allowing to create transparent faces, bitmap texture and video texture as webcam video stream.
  • Managment of Flash filters bringing some very nice visual effects
My Two Cents

Visual 2005 Website Published An Empty Folder

Just now I was publishing my .NET 2.0 website. What a shock! Visual Studio 2005 shown published completed and successful. However, my target published folder was empty!!

Then I Google out, and try out several solution, and I got this solved my issue:

In that case, you should try to precompile you site manually. To do so, Click Start -> Programs -> Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 -> Visual Studio Tools -> Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt
At command prompt type Aspnet_compiler -v /WebApplication1 -p "c:\CompiledSite " -errorstack -errorstack Specifies that the tool should include stack trace information if it fails to compile the application. For more see http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms229863(VS.80).aspx If You see some thing like [HttpParseException]: Unexpected end of file looking for tag. Correct the error(s) and run again. Till the time you finish it with no error.
Yeah! Finally I found one of my aspx file containing some invalid xhtml codes.
You can always turn on the validation when you build your web projects.



And you got your error and get it solved before you publish it.

Add HTML Signature to Outlook 2007

Add HTML signature to Outlook 2007

In order to get an existing html signature file added to Outlook 2007 there are several steps to take that are very different from previous versions of Outlook.

1) In Outlook 2007 open Tools > Options > Mail Format and select signatures

2) Create a new signature and give it a meaningful name. Press Ok.

3) Open up an explorer window (win + e) and navigate to C:\Documents and Settings\User name\Application Data\Microsoft\Signatures. If you can not see the Application Data folder you need to show hidden files and folders.

4) Open the html signature file that you just created with notepad,
right click > open with.
Remove the contents of this file and replace it with your html signature code.
Save this file, file > save.

5) While you are in here it wouldn't hurt to make the text version of the signature look like you want it to as well.

Once you have edited the html source of the new signature you should see it in its correct form in the signature area of Outlook 2007
