Hello,

I’m in the process of planning a project which to you guys is probably a cinch!

I need to build a 3D menu / navigation system, in a carousel in 3d space. when you click on each item, it zooms up closer. I’ve attached a jpg of it for better understanding. Basically, I’m new to AS3 coming from AS2, and I know there are 3d engines now that might help me out. I believe this menu could be compared to being “up close and personal” inside a carousel, so i’m assuming it’s similar code…maybe i don’t even need a 3d engine? Any help much appreciated!!
