====== Uploading 3D files on fly ======

Here is new example with explanations that describes how to  upload cast3D data files on fly and place then into current scene.

==== Sample ====

loading extra files could be very useful technique to  if you need to augment scene according to a stroy line.

[[demos:subload|Loading 3d files sample]]


====== Smooth Motion transitions and Blending samples ======

With recently introduced motion blending functionality in Cast3D framework, some neat features become available like smooth transitions between motions and combining a number motions into single one.

==== Camera attachment to 3D object sample ====

A useful technique of  attaching camera to a walking character is illustrated.  Use navigation controls to apply motions to the model.

[[demos:cameramove|Camera Attachment and Motion sample]]

==== Smooth Motion transitions sample ====
In this sample, transitions between 'walk', 'wave' and 'jump' motions is demonstrated. Use navigation controls to apply motions to the model.

[[demos:walksmooth|{{images:demo:walkfig.jpg| Smooth Motion transitions sample}}]]

==== Motion Blending sample ====
In this sample, the clone of the original model is created, then 'walk' and 'wave' motions combined and used as 'walk' motion.
Both instances motion can be controlled by a user. Use TAB key to switch control between instances.

====== Cloning sample ======

In this sample a new instance of skinned model is created and animated along with original.
Both instances motion can be controlled by a user. Use TAB key to switch control between instances.

====== Interactive animation sample ======

Same skinned model with animation controlled by a user.
Useful sample for gaming.
This is a Blender model file, exported to Collada Dae file and imported to Cast3d.
With a new import features motion groups ( walk,  jump) were extracted into a separate files and attached to character with <include> statement.

User control over the motion is supported with a new navigation utility classes.

====== COLLADA imported Samples  ======
=== Skin animation sample ===

This sample demonstrates Skin/Bone animation. It also shows how to create this kind of output with step by step instructions, starting from Blender model file, then export Collada Dae file and finally to Cast3d.

=== Laptop sample ===

[[http://cast3d.org/demos/models/laptop/Laptop.zip| Blender 2.45 model]] has been exported into COLLADA 1.4 [[http://cast3d.org/demos/models/laptop/Laptop.dae | Laptop.dae]] file and then with 'Dae2Xc3' utility into .xc3 file.

[[demos:laptop|{{images:demo:laptop.jpg| laptop sample}}]]

=== Plane sample ===

This is Blender model exported into Collada 1.4 [[http://cast3d.org/demos/models/plane/pirpir.dae|plane file]] and and then converted into xc3 format..

====== New  Feature Demo  ======
=== Camera motion visualization ===

With latest code update few visualization features were introduced. Source code is available for [[http://cast3d.googlecode.com/files/cast3d_091.zip| download cast3d_091.zip ]] with  samples. 
This demo sample is built with Papervision3D 2.0 support, which was also added with latest code.

====== MD2 Animated Models   ======
Take a look ( and listen) at cool morphing animations. Some models may be a little bit heavy, so please be patient.

====== Molecule Model ======
Demonstrates material color interpolation along with object motion, imported from (.3ds) file.
