Of course a voxel engine… It was really a lot of time I had this in mind and already did some experiment, but never finalized them. What I’ll show you now is some first implementation.

This new article provides Java developers with a transition guide to Actionscript which forms the foundation of Flex. Let’s face it: The client has not been a friendly place for Java programmers.

Online demos are available. Users can (translate)
