Today’s article presents a collection of procedurally-generated 3D shapes for Stage3D. In addition to spheres and cylinders, I’ve added circles, pyramids, cubes, and quads to the mix and refactored them all to inherit from a new Shape3D class. Read on for the full source code for all of these as well as a demo app.
