I'm making some head-way this week by finishing creating the graphics for the main interface and most of the graphics (buildings) for the expolore section. I'm also testing how the interface will work (i.e use cases and test .fla files to play around with)
I still haven't figured out how to swap images in the swf at runtime - I hope to figure out how to it this week, the next step after that will be to set up the database.

I overcame the problem of including a 3d carosel of images (of buildings) into the main swf.The movieClipContainer must be in the same movieClip as the button triggering the load of the external swf.
At the moment I have to have have a separate MCcontainer for each building rather than the same MC loading and unloading the content corresponding to each buildingButton.

This week along with finishing off my progress report I have been working on the first scene in the explore section the docks scene. I edited the panorama photograph in photoshop - cropped, sliced and adjusted hue - I then imported those graphics into flash as layers and then converted it all into a movieClip. I am currently working on the code.

This week I am mainly concentrating on editing the panorama photographs- Separating the buildings from the skyline and foreground and adjusting the temperature and hue using camera raw. I aim for them to look futuristic and surreal. I am also creating the main interface - playing around with ideas and researching how to create a dynamic photo gallary.
