How To? Mirror and horizont

Hi,

i’m searching for solutions or tips for 2 things.

First is reflection in 3D-Space. I’ve seen a few examples of reflection in 3D Space:

http://www.pioneer.nl/nl/flash/products/kuro2007/experience.html

Some time ago, i did reflection with a „ReflectionMovieClip“, but aftern seen the examples i asked me, if there is a better way, than using a MovieMaterial with reflection in it. In the cubejunky game, there are reflections of whole cubes. How to doe that?

Second question ist, how to do a horizon. In the following example, sombody „fakes“ the horizon by moving a gradient, if the camera moves. But that would not work, if the camera should rotate left or right. Is there a way to do that? It should even look like in the example, with the smooth border between ground and sky.

Thank you very, very much

Hi olee,

thanks for you answer. This is like i did, the last time. The ReflectionMovieclip use that, too.

I have to think about, how to change the reflection distance, if the object moves in y-axis.

Or has anybody another solution?

The link is the 13th from above at:

Many examples there, but some deadlinks.

Hey Axel,

thanks for posting my twitter3D-app ;-) where did you get the link from?

let me think how i did it, it was a few month ago...  if i remember correctly is a second plane below the original with a bitmapData and a gradientMask applied on it. Dont forget to cache both as bitmap.

Hello Theo,

thanks für your answer. I’m not sure, if i understood that.

I have to place a Camera inside a Cube, pointing to a Border of 2 Sides. The Sides are getting Materials with the White and Gray Gradients.

The Cube with the Camera inside is moved to anywhere, outside the primary Renderscene with my Object.

And when i rotate the first Cam, i also rotate the „skycam“ ??

Or have i do this in an own scene, instead move the cube outside the visible area?

Thank you

Axel
