Hey freeskier89, You code doesnt work if you publish it in Flash Player 7+. What needs to be changed in order for it to work ? Thanx ---

hmm… someone else said that also. To tell you the truth, I do not really know and I can’t test it because I have MX. My only guess is, try replacing the line this.vertexBuffer = \_root.createEmptyMovieClip(“3Dcontainer”+containerdepth,containerdepth); with this just to see if it works this.vertexBuffer = \_root.createEmptyMovieClip(“3Dcontainer1”,-1); If that doesn’t work you will have to consult someone with the latest version of flash to debug it. ---

Legend!^ Do you know what would be sweet? If you could smooth out the lines and make em kinda whip with some easing (like my intro [www.fadedpixel.com/darkmotion](http://www.fadedpixel.com/darkmotion)) I really want to see a dynamic version of my ribbons :P! ---

Thanks! Oh and darkmotion, to smooth out the lines, boost your frame rate ;). You could also use a for loop to loop through the code and interpolate, but it would be much easier to bump up the FPS. Edit: Thanks matthew! ---
