Do you want to be world-renown for your Papervision3D skills? Do you think you have what it takes to impress the developers of Papervision3D? Do you want to have a shiny PaperKing3D badge recognizing your awesomeness on your resume? Welcome to the PaperKing3D Contest! Here are the full details:

  • Contest: Best use of Papervision3D. Anything goes.
  • Requirements: Open-source project using the Papervision3D engine (judged on final product, not code). All other complimentary open-source libraries are permitted (Tweening, Physics, Vector, etc.) as long as Papervision3D handles the third dimension. Enter as many times as you wish.
  • Deadline: August 15th, 2008 12:00am Pacific Time
  • Judges: the Papervision3D team

1st Prize: Adobe Creative Suite Master Collection

2nd Prize: FDT Enterprise Edition

FDT is a plug-in which boosts the already mighty open-source platform Eclipse and turns it into a powerful development environment for serious Flash and ActionScript coding.

  11. David Lee Says:

    Well here is a idea of what thing to make.

    You should code up a interactive product sample for online for custom headwear.

    for excample customink have a version of a product sample which is flat and it would be great if it was 3d.

    Well thats what the company I work at wants in the future and what I want to code up but I have no clue how to do 3d models and stuff.

    No clue how to use flash too.

    I did a bunch of other stuff for them that I have enough knowledge to do but 3d isnt one of the stuff i know how to do.
