As promised, the Pixel Bender 3D Beta for Molehill is now live on Adobe labs! there is still a lot of work to do, but we decided to get you the tools as early as we could so that you could start to play with them. There is also a new Pixel Bender 3D subforum in the Pixel Bender devnet forums for your questions, requests and bug reports.
I was going to wait and see if we were going to publish an “official” video, but, eh, why wait?
For those who were not there. I need to explain something about some of my outbursts. The main rule of the sneak is that you are limited to 5 minutes. This year, we had a klingon timekeeper (played excellently by Flash Catalyst Product Manager, Doug Winnie). He was supposed to come out close to 5 minutes to “remove” you if you ran over time. Doug and I being pals, he decided to start creeping across the stage towards me much earlier. Nothing is more distracting that a klingon creeping up on you out of the corner of your eye
I really had a great time doing this. I had a lot of stuff to cover, but I managed to get most of it in with one main exception: PIXEL BENDER 3D RUNS ON THE GPU IN FLASH EVEN ON MOBILE DEVICES.
