C3DL 2.0-WebGL and beyond

Cathy Leung | 22 February, 2010 | 0:59
It has been a long time coming but we have now updated all the core features of C3DL to use WebGL. You can dowload our 2.0 release here. We have also updated all our demos to use WebGL. Our tutorials have all been updated (tutorial 5 and 6 needs a better example but we’re getting to it). Our documentation has also been updated for release 2.0

C3DL 2.0 includes the following features:
  • uses WebGL (as opposed to Canvas 3D) – you will need a WebGL enabled browser to see demos (see tutorial #1 on how to do this)
  • ports all c3dl features including:
    • Collada model loading
    • Picking
    • Lighting System
    • camera system
    • Particle system
    • Effects system that allows a swappable shader to be applied to alter its look. Currently we have the following effects implements:
      • cartoon (with or without outlines)
      • greyscale
      • solid colour
      • sepia
      • gooch
  • lines and dots
Many of these features can be observed in our Asteroids-3D demo. (click on rocks to fire at them). We have also moved our repository onto github and a bug tracker at lighthouse. Try it out and give us some feedback! :D If you are looking for our Canvas 3D related demos please check our Archive link.

A spec change that keeps coming back to haunt me

At some point, the way firefox handles keyboard events changed. I’m not sure exactly when it happened, all I know is that it broke how I was dealing with keyboard interaction on almost every demo I’ve written (for example,the mocap demo and MotionView). When I wrote the demos, the keydown event would be fired once, [...]
