Away3D on iPad

[Raja]

Has anyone created away3D apps/games on iPad? If so, can you please
share your experiences in terms of performance and user experience. I
am sure it would be of interest to many people in this group.

PS: If I understand correctly one can run Air apps on iPad, so it
should be possible to create away3D apps for iPad.

Thanks for any feedback.

Hi Raja,

Yes, I'm working on this at the moment.

It's been a bit of a nightmare but I can get a model of up to 1000
polygons to run reasonably smoothly on my iPad

I've also had to use Away3d Lite & found that only .3ds files will
work.

Hope this helps!

Hello Paul,

Thanks for the info. We just started porting our away3D based game to
work on iPad. We use 3DS models. So it is good to hear that they
work.

Did you try using air 3.0? That has molehill in it and may improve
your performance. We plan on trying that one out. I will let you know
how it does.

Regards,
Raja
