I’m also super excited about the upcoming Adobe® AIR® runtime release for Android® where I will be able to leverage Flash®/Flex®/AIR® ActionScript 3 applications to be deployed as native Android® applications that utilize Adobe® AIR® runtime. I’ve been dabbling deeply into the developer pre-release versions of Adobe AIR runtime for Android® and I must say that it’s extremely promising - especially on my HTC EVO 4G phone.

My most used application is the native Voice Recorder in conjunction with an Android® application I created with the Android® SDK where I record and log audio for all incoming and outgoing calls and upload them to a secure database over a secure connection to my home network file repository. By the way, it is legal in the state of Texas to record phone conversations WITHOUT having to inform the other party that you are doing so. Those phone recordings are able to be used as evidence for court proceedings originating in the state of Texas. Telemarketers and dead-beats beware!

Just like my deliberate decision to wait for Adobe® Flash® to reach smart phones was prudent, while not making the move to iPhone® restricted development, my decision to pursue mobile development with Android® is truly worthwhile and meaningful - simply amazingly easy and highly profitable.

I am even considering scaling back on my Windows® smart phone mobile development and focusing solely on Android® going forward.  It is quite refreshing to not be stuck in the Microsoft® and Apple® realm for mobile device application development.

My favorite Android® application is the LogMeIn® Ignition program where I can connect and fully control my home network of multiple PCs from my HTC EVO 4G phone.

AS3_CORE_MVC Online Documentation

Special thanks to Jack Doyle and his Tweening Platform v11 which has been incorporated into the framework.  Note that Jack’s documentation includes references to classes that only Club Greensock members at varying levels have access to and these classes are NOT distributed, required, nor released with the base AS3_CORE_MVC framework.

Also, after much consideration and testing various MVC framework implementations, PureMVC was the clear choice.  What helped to cement this decision to us PureMVC was that it was originally implemented in the ActionScript 3 language for use with Flex, Flash, and AIR.  After much success, it has been ported over to all major development platforms, including PHP, my favorite and most used server sided scripting language.

Yeah, it’s just a cheesy demo showcasing some of the preliminary possibilities that might be incorporated into the real online multiplayer game project.  This is by no means finished and frankly is just a quick throw together demo for pre-visualization purposes and for determining the internal costs to the production and development.  3D models for the architecture in the scene were acquired from TurboSquid.com’s free models download.  These TurboSquid 3D models only serve the purpose for previz in this demo and obviously won’t be used in the proposed game.

This is also solely built upon the AS3_CORE_Flex framework (the Flex 3 version of the Flash 9 AS3_CORE Flash Template Framework version), with an integration of the Flash 10 Alternativa3D engine and the Greensock Tweening Platform.

The bloke has some good hiding places and if you move around too much, well, you might just fall into infinity as the collision detection is turned off.  Enjoy blasting away some of those medieval blokes.

There are some funny screen grabs of the action below.  Click here or on any picture to load the 3D game.

This Vs 2.0 is based on Exey Panteleev’s Vs 1.0 Alternativa3D Mesh Exporter AIR application but I made some significant changes that have more configurable and robust source code generation features specifically implemented for the complexities for integration within the AS3_CORE_Flex application framework and Alternativa3D applications.
