Experimental PV3D clock

Here is a little experimental 3D-Clock realized with Papervision3D. It is my entry to the DBF Democode TIME CHALLENGE. The little effect shows seconds (purple box) and minutes (greenish box). The seconds clock hand moves every 5 seconds and the minutes clock hand every five minutes. The hour clock hand is missing.

Well, as always I ran out of time (deadline is today). That’s why the following features I actually wanted to implement are missing:

  • shadow casting
  • hour clock hand
  • moving camera
  • correct some 3D issues

The experiment requires flash 9 and uses Papervision3D and the Tweener.
