Sprint Conclusion24 Flash can be fast Optimized opcode uploadFromByteArray Customize your flash experience Create plugins in Flash IDE, 3dsmax, Maya Connect to Flash with sockets Editors Debuggers and Profilers. 23. Sprint II25 24. Frame by frame animation Inspired by Quake Cons Bigger file Lots of buffers No IK Solver Pro Faster26 25. Faster but Why ? Skeletal animation Each frames setProgramConstantsFromByteArray (All bonesId and Weight data) Frame by frame Longer initialization time Each Frame Tell which vertex Buffer to use27 26.
