Gaia 3.0.5 released – NetStream made easier!

March 4th, 2009 by Steven Sacks

The 3.0.5 release of Gaia adds some great new features, especially for NetStream users.

The NetStreamAsset has been improved in both AS3 and AS2 and a new class NetStreamAssetEvent has been added. First, all the "client events" that NetStream has have been made into real events that you can listen for via the new event class NetStreamAssetEvent. Also, F4V support has been added to AS3, and there's a great new helper method attach(video:Video) that makes it much easier to attach NetStreamAssets to Video instances.

myAsset.attach(video);

Also new in this version of Gaia are two new API methods, setGlobalVolume() and getGlobalVolume(). With setGlobalVolume(), you can either set or fade the global volume over time, and even include a callback method when the fade is complete.

The API method gotoRoute has been improved to allow passing of deeplinks.

Finally, the Gaia Panel now saves the last project's folder path names so you don't have to change them each time you make a new project.

Oh, and TweenMax has been updated to the latest version, 10.11.

Woot!
