Cathay Pacific microsite- 777 interior

[EricKlein]

It's been a bit off and on for me as well...I know that the very latest Flash 9 upgrade solves some pretty major issues with performance- perhaps this would help you.

Also, I've noticed it takes a bit for the navigation to start working well...which is a bit annoying.

Still, the site exceeds a lot of my expectations from the results we had early on...

Nope - still unusable! I had upgraded to the Flash 9 player. It seems to work a bit for an instant or so and then just spins out of control and locks up. It says it is running in the task manager but all buttons are frozen and moving the mouse around doesn't do anything. I have tried it on 4 machines in 2 different ISPs on machines with high end video cards and loads of RAM and CPU power.

Wow - is that frustrating. Seems like the plane is going down! lol

Not sure what the fix is, or why I'm having this problem?? I guess it could be slowdown from my ISP but have tried it at work and at home, both ISPs I have never had any problems with other sites. Oh well. Really nice images anyway.

Cheers Peter.

Yeah... I'm having some pretty serious issues when running it in Internet Explorer, and it sounds just like what you're experiencing. You sort of walk back and forth, the view randomly rotates and is not at all tied to the mouse position. Sometimes the browser is completely locked up, but definitely none of the navigation controls work.

It runs great in Firefox and Opera, so I'm not sure what the issue is. This is the first time I've opened up Internet Explorer in months! We'll have to let the developers know.

Thanks for the feedback! It's quite frustrating that people can't see the content we created!

No problem - I don't use any other browser than IE. I will give Firefox a try and let you know.

Yeah - the images are awesome it would be too bad if it were IE issues. I think the majority of people are still using that, but I could be wrong.

Cheers Peter.

project update...see first post.

i have never seen something like this. its really awesome.
how did you light the interiors?
do you have vray lights in all these recessed places?
Must be a nightmare to get it noise-free with only indirect light.
or did you place some invisible lights into the middle of the cabin?

nice animation and nice rendering - good job guys.

although that is absolutely piss poor if the web developers haven't tested it in all browsers - that is BASIC - really schoolboy stuff...

[EricKlein]

Thanks Tammo-
Yes, it's basically all indirect with vray lights in all the underbin and ceiling soffits. there are vray lightins in the windows though for daylight scenes...There is also vray light material on the seat monitors.

sv:
I agree, however there doesn't seem to be a solution at this point- I know in our industry that 64bit OS is becoming the standard, but in general I'd say the target audience for this website wouldn't ever see the problem. (it still bugs me though)

By the way, Kudos as always are due to Vlado and crew- This project is made possible through their amazing work!
