Here’s a little try on the new Papervision3D Branch Effects based on the tutorial/example of Andy Zupko, the new pixel effects added to the branch look great, this was made using Flex 3 Beta 3.

Yes that’s right I said Papervision 3D 2.0 it’s an alpha codenamed GreatWhite and as Ralph Hauwert says in his blog it’s not fully optimized just yet but it’s alredy on de svn on Papervision3D googlecode project.

Here’s some of it’s new features:

Viewport3D – Auto sizing, clipping and culling, enables you to render to a texture in the scene.
ASCollada
ShadeMaterials – Only shaded surfaces
Shaders – Shading + Texturing
Frustrum Culling + Frustrum Camera
New Rendering architecture
Swappable renderer architecture

This is really exiting and I see the same and more success that it’s first release.
