crisp fonts in papervision follow up
July 14th, 2008
Hey,
Having just completed a project using vector vision, i cant wait to use it again! We have had a lot of positive feedback for the way it looks. I would recommend to anyone wanting to use fonts in 3D that this is the way forward.
I still cant get over the way mathieu-badimon over at five3d creates fonts to be rendered by the engine. You have to download a flash panel from his site which you pass in the font you want a 3d version of, and it creates a class with all the typographical meta data about each glyph needed to allow flash to draw with the standard ‘lineTo’ function each letter with the correct letter spacing: check out this class: HouschkaLight.as tis pretty amazing stuff!
Check out the photography agency site that we just did that I used this in trayler.co.uk
