Nice looking setup Fairlane! Looks really responsive to the touch.

Thanks mate. It’s been some time since ORION but glad you liked it…

HI PAUL! How are doing? mmm Paul, maybe it is stupid question but I am brave enough to ask it)))) So Paul what can be alternetive to IR illuminators at DI set up? Can I use neon illuminators, or BIG flashlights more bigger the at the photo )) I have constructed a box with the same size as ORION, and the second step I don’t what to do(( I have not find any IR LEDS or IR Illuminators and it is sad( I had a big plans( do you have any advice or idea what should I do. I can’t use Ebay or othe internet stores because I live in Kazakhstan that is so complicated)

hi

can i just say this is a great post and thank you for releasing the app loader open source. I was just wondering can you code a back button from each app to the app loader and where would the code go say in the paint app for example?

cheers

x peace

Hi webmonkey, I’m currently working on another AppLoader for AS3 Multitouch applications, however, there already is a back button in the AppLoader.
I originally posted on my blog the instructions to go back to the AppLoader menu and quit the current application.

A long Press (5 seconds) will activate the pop-up menu to allow you to exit the program by pressing ‘x’…

See the attached pic for a screenshot of the long press function.

Hope this helps…

Hi Nurlan, sorry for the late reply, I totally missed this one!

You need to make sure that the illumination you are using emits IR light. Any influence of ordinary visible light will dramatically decrease performance in a setup like ORION. (Rear DI with Projector)

Hope this helps…

Hi,

I love all your work you did with the AppLoader, thx for sharing!!

Have you got any news on the other apploader you said you were working on??

Thanks so far.

Hey NightCat91, thanks for the kind words mate!

It’s still in testing stage getting some weird scrolling issues. Here’s a sneak peak though....

I’ll have a demo available soon with some instructions on how to customize it to your own liking as well… might get a few people to test it out for me

Hey,

thanks for posting the preview pictures…

That looks sooo cool, cant wait till the beta.
Is it using something like coverflow for choosing the program?? (looks like it)

Great Work.

very cool i would like to test it if you want !

Hi there,

Must say great work, but osButton is not working for me. I compare osButton.as Revision r355 vs. r373 and everything works fine but no button. Any help.

Thanks in Advance!

@nmax, how are you testing the osButton function? Do you have a multi touch setup or are you using the simulator?
The osButton function does not work in the simulator.

Hi Fairlane thanks for fast reply, tested on surface and simulator. I must say that I use just one app (PHOTO) in OSapp and osbutton is not working. When I put other app’s everything works fine (but I only need photo apps!).

Any Idea?

Thanks
