The Unity development UI is understated, responsive, and deceptively spare. The menus and panels are few, but deep. No timeline, playback in separate window from stage. The stage is called the Scene, views are locked down to your basic cardinal and 45 angles. Scripts get attached to game objects – Flash AS2 throwback to MovieClip scripts. The hierarchy view is actually very useful, compared to the one nobody remembers even existing in Flash.

Signals. Heard of them? What’s the big deal you say?
Simple. The event system in AS3 is both limited and antiquated. True, native AS3 events offer a convenient way of messaging (bubbling) withinUI hierarchies. Yet, at an abstract API level, they more often as not restrict the developer than aid them.

I just uploaded a new tutorial that shows you how to create a fast photo scroller for the tablet devices. The application uses blitting techniques to ensure fast performance across devices. You can check out a browser version (no preloader) to see the performance and watch a video below to see it on an iPad2.

In the second part of this series I showed you how to cut Box2D objects.
Unfortunately I was working in the debug draw environment, so the whole process can’t be applied in a real-world example, unless you want to publish a game with the debug draw graphics. So it’s time to see how to cut your own sprites.

Creating a mobile mp3 player is easy with the classes available within Flex 4.5 for mobile.
In this tutorial, we will browse a mobile device with a filter for only mp3 file types, select and load the mp3 file, read the meta data about the mp3 file, play, pause, resume, and restart the mp3 file.

Integrating .NET applications with other client technologies (or even .NET to .NET) may not seem to be a trivial task. I believe Microsoft has done a great job providing a fairly closed technology stack where things work as long as you stick to Microsoft’s prescription of how to go about solving problems. Take for example the task of creating a multi client messaging system between a .NET application and Flex, AIR, Android or iOS client and you will shortly feel the pain. The real challenge is the .NET messaging framework is not very open to accomodate client applications of other than native .NET or ASP.NET. As a result, you will need a messaging server which will serve the purpose of routing broker and messaging “translator” between heterogeneous client applications.

Cross platform application connectivity is to be a frequently requested and talked about feature. A lot of enterprise and consumer-facing applications require robust data exchange mechanism between application instances running on mobile devices. On top of this, many applications depend on real-time updates and notifications pushed from the server to the clients. One of the approaches for cross platform data exchange is a feature called Remote Shared Objects. The video below provides an explanation of the feature as well as a demonstration of iPhone, iPad and Windows Mobile phone communicating with each other as well as a browser-based Flex application.

It’s been awhile since I posted anything about as-blocks actionscript3 project. My last year or so has been a little bit about survival on other fronts. The as-blocks project started out as a simple as3 parser that converted it’s parse data into an AST. The original intention was to be able to parse actionscript3 for use with a new documentor I was developing (the original parser and lexer was written in Java). As time progressed, I felt a nagging desire to see if I could port this Java parser and lexer to as3. Well months later I had unit tests confirming it would work.
