  Updated to simplify it with just a Drawing Canvas.

  Crossed a Drawing Canvas with a cube, and since I'm such a hobbyist I thought I'd share.

  Well they kind of have to have a long discussion of how animation would work.

  I don't think bones and multiple texture/mesh's are going to happen the regular 3d way.

  Have you even read the thread which I have linked? Not everyone develops for hobby and I am absolutely not interested in 3rd party plugin

  There are no other options for web monetization than via third party.

  Scirra has stated they will not peruse the use of third party api's because of all the issues.

  They would prefer that the third parties themselves, or other developers do that.

  Sure I would like more options to monetize on the desktop and web, but the ones available to Scirra are limited, and breaking into another thread to ask for them isn't going to help.

  The biggest ask there would be for a complete Steam integration for the Windows Wrapper.

  As for 3d, vertex color filters would be an obvious choice for me, and of course a z camera tweak would be a game changer.

  Perhaps we should add more 3d to make more money?

  You can put a dictionary in a dictionary. Just saying.

  That's pretty complicated for a beginner.

  Perhaps if you showed your design document we could give you some hints.

  Its best to use Timers, or the Tween behavior when working with objects and instances.

  Wait doesn't care about picking or what loop its in.

  Ok I filed the report a few hours ago. I'm still am not sure why the new beta example works, and mine doesn't, unless I'm introducing some rounding errors or something like that.

  Thanks.

  I've updated the project to show what is expected: dropbox.com/s/xzjda6st1yy21ed/zrefresh.c3p

  I looked at the new beta z height animation example. I don't know why its different than my example.

  A mask sounds feasible.

  Has the plug been updated to use modules?

  Lol. Yeah animating from json does pose a few issues. It is possible to read the json data via the json object, and then interpolate it, but honestly I would probably use a depth map.

  I haven't looked at the C3 json data, but manipulating points that actually change rather than sampling an entire grid, then setting an entire grid would be a better method.
