Multitouch in VE3D

Ever since I got a Touchsmart at home I've been very interested in the desktop touch experience, and so in the last couple days I decided to play with how I could incorporate it into VE3D. The code itself isn't really ready for consumption, but if you'd

Animation Redux

This sample was released before , but didn't have a version that could run on the web without an install. The new version in the samples pack is almost exactly the same, so I won't go over it again in detail. This post is just to show it off interactively.
