A BlitMask is basically a rectangular Sprite that acts as a high-performance mask for a DisplayObject by caching a bitmap version of it and blitting only the pixels that should be visible at any given time, although its bitmapMode can be turned off to restore interactivity in the DisplayObject whenever you want. When scrolling very large images or text blocks, BlitMask can greatly improve performance, especially on mobile devices that have weaker processors. No comment yet.

Today I’d like to release a quick demo about a setup for using Away3D 4.0 with your FDT projects. We’ll even have an example of loading a Wavefront .obj file and using it in your project. Before we get started, I’d like to thank Michael Plank for providing the sample project and it’s assets. The 3D ship model that we’re loading is also from his upcoming game Delta Strike. The game is really looking great and I recommend everyone check it out. Delete the scoop?

I figured I would give a quick update on multithreading in Flash, as since I wrote about the subject last year, around 80% of the search engine traffic coming to my site are using keywords “multithreading in Flash”, “concurrency in Flash”, “threads in Flash” and literally hundreds of other variations. If you follow the latest Flash news then some of this might be old news, but I figured I would summarize it and then make some guesses about the future. Delete the scoop?

In case you didn’t hear Google just announced that they have deprecated their mapping API for Flash. You can read more about it here. But don’t fret. Google Maps is hardly the only mapping API for the Flash Platform and almost certainly not the best either. Here’s a list that I’ve put together. Please let me know if I’ve missed anything.
