Appendix B. Companion Website

The companion website for Professional Papervision3D (at www.professionalpapervision.com) is more than just an add-on or a place for distributing code, it's an integral part of conveying the book's contents. The days when code was small and easily explained in a few written pages are gone. Today, many Flash applications are thousands of lines of code with large supporting libraries. Using video to help convey the concepts behind such applications is the primary goal of the book's website.

You'll find a large set of video resources on the book's website that are designed to help you come up to speed on the book's topics. The website consists of:

  • Book Chapter Videos on Each Major Topic

  • Training Videos on Topics Supporting PV3D

  • Chapter Code for Download and Viewing

  • Additional Topics From the Book

  • Bonus Examples and New Flash 3D Technologies

  • Current 3D Topics from UCF

Using the book and the book's training videos together should help you come up to speed rapidly in Flash 3D and its supporting technologies.

Book Chapter Videos

Each major topic in the book has a video associated with it. This approach is designed to maximize your grasp of the content and convey concepts difficult to explain in text. In some cases, portions of the book were written to go hand in hand with its counterpart video content. To maximize your absorption of the contents, first read a section in the book, watch its video, try the code examples, and then try extending the code's capability.
