Been whacking Flash open again

[Svart likdöd helvete]

Was that the game for which we made levels? Has our levels been included?
I love the effects. Is flash hard ware accelerated?

[voidSkipper]

All levels created were included and are credited.

Flash can only hardware accelerate very specific things. Compositing of certain video formats, and bitmap compositing in some cases. Unfortunately it's not supported on all platforms, so banking on it is a terrible idea.

Impressive.

[voidSkipper]

Thanks Cray.

That said, you don't really need hardware acceleration to get most things done in flash. There are plenty of serviceable dynamically-lit and textured flash 3D engines which run quite fast despite running on the CPU.

Don't forget that the majority of flash's graphical bottleneck comes from the vector calculations and antialiasing. The second you move away from the display list/drawing API and start using bitmaps, you're going to get an enormous speed boost.

It also supports strict-typed fixed length arrays (called Vectors), as opposed to the linked-list-esque things that it used to rely on.

Fair do's Freespace. Good to see you're having success in this field. It's always hard to get off the ground but you've got quite an impressive portfolio now it seems.

[Old Craywyn]

No problem Freespace, and honestly mate, you should of left it as "Thanks Cray" the explanation went over my head unfortunatly!

I saw that Flash can use box2d physics engine.

The explanation was actually a continuation of what I was saying to Albin
