Vanishing point

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

For other uses, see Vanishing point (disambiguation).

A vanishing point is a point in a perspective drawing to which parallel lines appear to converge. The number and placement of the vanishing points determines which perspective technique is being used.

linear perspective is drawing with 1-3 vanishing points.

curvilinear perspective is drawing with 5 vanishing points mapped into a circle with 4 VPs at the cardinal headings N,W,S,E and one at the circle origin.

reverse perspective is drawing with vanishing points that are placed outside the painting with the illusion that they are "in front of" the painting.

Vanishing points were first used by Renaissance artists such as Donatello and Masaccio.

Vanishing points can also refer to the point in the distance where the two verges of a road appear to converge. This is often used to help assess the upcoming curves in the road; to judge the radius and therefore the entry speed and optimum line. If the vanishing point moves towards you or to your sides, the curve is tightening. If the vanishing point moves away from you or comes to centre, the curve is straightening.

hi. This is my first post obviously, and first game like this I've played. Everyone on here is really good at this stuff, I can't believe how fast the puzzles were answered. Anyhow, I've been thinking about a couple things that probably don't mean anything.

1) The total score possible for the game (without referrals) is 1300. Thats a really clean number total and for some reason I have a feeling thats going to mean something.

2) The "other" bug for some of the puzzles (that more than a few people got) stands out to me. Its weird how it shows up behind the popup on the main page and then is gone if you log off / log on.

ok well I won't waste your time anymore. If these things are nothing please don't kill me, it is my first time with this stuff!!

At the end of the video, after the vanishingpointgame.com website address appears, there are some words that flash on the screen. Could this be a clue?

It's the start of the Meta Puzzle. Use that the same way we did the earlier ones.

As for Aaron's e-mail, it was a mistake. We weren't supposed to get that. Those are just his title, work, and fax numbers. Ignore that stuff.

Although, there's one thing I need to take back. Originally, I said to ignore the weird white boxes that were showing up in the game. Apparently, I'm not as smart as I think I am. http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=17829

i belive it says /on the run

The "/on the run" bit is where we are all at now.. this clue takes you to another webpage on the site where loki says to contact her hence everybody trying to think of an email address to contact her at, or some other clue based on the email she sends back when an email is sent to [email protected]

But it seems contacting isn't working very well..lol..I get bounce backs when I try to send to any of the addresses.

EDIT

I finally got something back from '[email protected]'

Hmmm. Not quite what I had in mind. Try harder - then listen closely.

...and now I've got the one from Aaron.

hmmm...wonder why I got failures the first time.

      draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics. Generate diagrams from text descriptions using our smart templates. Diagram faster with keyboard shortcuts. draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 changelog: Uses electron 42.4.1 Updates to draw.io core 30.2.4.
