The script author created a very nice implementation of his favourite game Renju in ActionScript using PureMVC framework.

The game has great music, attention to detail and comes with sourcecodes.

It's a great resource for improving your AS skills - be sure to check also another posts in his blog.

Jack Doyle took the TweenLite and TweenFilterLite classes, put them together and added some handy features. The result is the TweenMax class, or "TweenLinte on Steroids" as the author describes his class.

Some of the extra features you can find in the TweenMax class:
- pause/play
- orient object rotation to bezier path
- AS3 event listeners
- easier sequencing

Check the script's homepage for a more detailed feature comparsion.

The class is free and you are welcome to donate to Jack Doyle.

FIVe3D is a vector based 3D engine. It means it does better job when rendering text than e.g. Papervision which is bitmap based.

Zack Jordan who is obviously a fan of FIVe3D prepared a nice tutorial how to create a TextCloud with FIVe3D.

AS3Corelib is a set of useful AS3 classes. Some highlighted classes:

- JSON : decoder, encoder, parser

- MD5 : to MD5 hash a string

- SHA1 : to SHA1 has a string

- StringUtil : includes the trim function which removes leadign and trailing whitespace chars from a string

If you need to reed a zip archive into flash this is the class you want to use.

There are also other classes, which are faster but this does not require Adler32 checksum contained in ZIP archives.

You can also use this class to create the zip files.

Sometimes you need just a simple 3D animation and using the Papervision engine would be overhead.
In this case I do recommend taking a look on this light weighted but powerful engine, which makes displaying and manipulating objects in 3D easy.

AS2 version of this engine is also available.

There are many possible use cases for an AS3 Base64 encoder / decoder class.

Let me introduced one of them. I had to distribute flash classes without attaching an image file to them. What I did was to put the image (a small logo) inside of an .as file. I simply Base64 encoded the image (using an online service) and then copied and pasted the string into the .as class.

I am sure you can think of even more situations where this class comes handy.

You can encode any file online to base64 using this site: http://www.motobit.com/util/base64-decoder-encoder.asp
