ActionScript 3.0 :: Papervision Restrict Rotation Of A Plane
Jan 11, 2009
A longtime AS2 developer finally making the transition to AS3 and Papervision all in one big leap.Working from Lee Brimelow's awesome pv2 tutorial as a base I've been able to create a plane with a movieclip mapped to it. What I'd ideally like to do is limit the rotation of the plane to maximum of -45 to 45 degrees on the X and Y.[code]I've tried using basic conditionals to restrict p.rotationX and p.rotationY but they seem to be ignored.

I am trying to build a portfolio application similar to the used by Whitevoid. I am using Flex 4 and Papervision3D 2. I have everything working except for one issue. When I try to load an external SWF as a material on one of the planes, I can see any native Flex or Flash components in their correct positions, but the papervision objects are not being rendered properly. It looks like the viewport is not being set in the nested swf. I have posted my code for loading the swf below.
private function loadMovie(path:String=""):void
{
loader = new Loader();
request = new URLRequest(path);
[Code]....
Below I have posted two pictures. The first is a shot of the application running by itself. The second is the application as a MovieMaterial on a Plane. You can see how the button created as a spark object in the mxml stays in the correct position, but papervision sphere (which is rotating) is in the wrong location.

I am having trouble getting a spaceship to fly through space in 3 dimensions. I was wondering if anyone knows of like some good example source code for 3D plane flying movement?
Or if someone could point me in the right direction for the Trigonometry equations,

I add an FLVPlayback component on to a Papervision Plan. So far so good. Video plays, 3d works. But I am facing two issues:
1. Even though I set my MovieMaterial to interactive, I canot click on the controls. I have found someone else that stumbled onto something similar (link 1, link 2), but since they did not have answer, I though of asking here.
2. The FLVPlayback is jittery. What I mean is that the component's x position moves all the time from something like 0 to 10 or 20, then back to zero. Remember in the old days of analog television (if you're old enough) when you had to play with the tracking? It looks like that.
Here is my code:
Code:
package

I've got to do a project with with 3d so have turned to papervision. Basically, I have 5 planes that I want the camera to rotate around but only to a point. When the camera reaches an x value of either -1000 of 1000 the camera movement should stop and not go past that value (but obviously the other way).Also, I need to add a function to click one of the planes and it comes to the front and fills the stage (it's aspect ratio will be the same as the stage). The code I'm using the standard Lee Brimlow tutorial code:[code]So basically, the cameras movement is restricted to between -1000 and 1000 and you can click on the planes and zoom into them so they fill the screen.

I'm at the moment trying to recreate a menu system that I found on URL... as you can see, the menu you get after you've choosen a language is a 3d menu rotating so its always looking at the cursor, but as you will notice, the motion has a little bit of easing to it, which I'm currently trying to recreate using the cube you make with the "Papervision3D 2.0 Interactive Cube" from GotoAndLearn();URL...and here is the code behind that drives the rotation:URL...Now, my problem is that I'm having a hard time figuring out how to create a tween effect on his, resulting in a bit out of sync rotation that slowly stops instead of just following my pointer in an instant.

I'm studying John Lindquist's example from here: [URL] I'm trying to figure out how to add restrict his matrix3d method, so the sphere has limited movement.
Code:
Select all override protected function onRenderTick(event:Event=null):void {
var currentMousePoint:Point = new Point(viewport.containerSprite.mouseX, viewport.containerSprite.mouseY);
if(isMouseDown) {
var difference:Point = currentMousePoint.subtract(previousMousePoint);

I have a papervision camera of which turns using keyboard input, I have a radar of which I would like to orientate to direction when the camera turns.I have it all working apart from mapping my (camera) DisplayObject3D.rotationY to RadarInterface.rotation correctly.The camera (or any 3d object) works with values I'm finding hard:Clockwise: 0 to 89, 89 to 0, -0 to -89, -89 to -0 doing a complete 360.So if I were to turn 180 degrees I'd go from 0 to 90 and back down to 0 again.

I have need to restrict user input. TextInput should restrict all special characters and punctuation. Any other characters are allowed. In java there is a regex patter:
replaceAll("\p{Punct}", "_")
Is there something similar in actionscript?

I'm trying to do some augmented reality projects with flartoolkit . I can now put simple 3d objects on my marker and it works fine , but I wanna give my project some events that the user can interact with. I'm trying to trace the rotation of the marker. there's a container:DisplayObject3D which my application uses to add the 3d objects , I traced this :"trace(container.rotationZ)" but it's just returning 0 . I studied another AR application's source code and it was using the rotation of it's container object without problem .and I think I should mention that I'm using the exercise file of seb lee delisle papervision3d course from [URL]. anyone has any experience with flartoolkit? the main functions of my my code is as below:

Is it possible to have the child movieclip rotate separate of the rotation properties assigned to the parent? so ultimately giving the child element it's own axis?I've customized Lee Brimelows (gotoandlearn.com) 3D carousel to spin on the x axis to make it a vertical carousel. I've also rotated that by 45 degrees on the y axis to see all the items, and wrote a snippet of code to hide the left portion of the carousel. The entire carousel is contained within the 'container' movieclip, and inside of that are my carousel items (as seen below), with the larger item being the item in focus.
On rollover of the item in focus, I want to rotate it so it faces the viewer (as seen below),basically removing the 45 degree rotation applied to the container.The problem i'm running into is when you rotate the container (changing the rotationX of the container), the axis basically rotates with it, so when i rollover the next item 'in focus', the following happens..(in the example where it appears how it want it to, the carousel is at a rotationX of 0, so it works fine)

Program A has a cannon that aims to line up with where-ever the mouse is pointing, in 360 degrees, and fires when the mouse is is clicked. Program B has an eye instead of a cannon that should in theory do similar functions when the capslock key is toggled, but instead only has a 90 degree range of motion from the Right of the eye toward the bottom (quadrant 4 only). Where did the ther 270 degrees of rotation disappear to?

i.m trying to create a 3d rotation much like the widely used carousel only the rotation i desire consist of four upright(90 degrees) movieclips resting on a slanted, 30 degree plane which rotate onEnterFrame or following a tween on a oval like path - then pause for a given number of seconds at the four movieclips positions equal in distance on the plane
function around() {
this._x = Math.cos(this.angle) * radiusX + centerX;
this._y = Math.sin(this.angle) * radiusY + centerY;
var s = this._y /(centerY+radiusY);

Im trying to figure out how to travel along a plane to a point in 3d space. It needs to feel as though travelling down a road. I have attached a swf with the desired effect. Im using the formula scale = fl/(fl + z);the problem im having is it looks fine until scale is > 1. I need the plane to stay central to the screen.

how to rotate a 2d plane in 3d? for example... i want to load a jpeg in to a movieclip, and then, using actionscript, flip the photo around so essenitally you're looking at the back of it.i've seen the Scripting 3D in Flash kirupa resource, but it's a bit advanced for what i need. i only want to flip a 2d plane 180 degrees.

I'm basically trying to emulate Photoshop's Vanishing Point tool where you can define the 4 2D points and the 3D plane is calculated from that information, in terms of the rotation of the plane relative to x y and z axes.
So if you have an image like this one:
And you define the points of the four corners, maybe like this:
It would define the 3D plane that the surface must live on relative to the x y and z axes. Researching this has led me to some tutorials on drawTriangles and Homographies, but they all seem to be focused on mapping bitmap data and I can't seem to find anything that defines a 3D plane itself.

I have a 2d plane rotated on its x axis, with 2d display objects I want to move around on the plane. Its pretty similar to a chess board [URL]..
The board is a rotated rectangle, and the pieces are just 2d display objects. Whats the easiest way to manipulate those objects so they appear to be moving on the board?

I have an array of points and I need square planes to be drawn between these points and distorted if points change their coordinates (see what I mean in the attached file).So what is the best practice I should use to create such set of planes knowing just coordinates of the points (planes vertices)?

if I take a square, turn into a Movie Clip, addjust the Perspective Angle, and the Vanishing Points. Then I rotate the square along the x axis so that the square is now a plane laying on the z axis. How do I get the length of the Movie Clip? I need to know when a plane starts and ends on the z axis. I also need to get the width.

I have a wall of Planes at different angles and positions. I'd like to get the camera to rotate and look straight at the focused plane. I have created a dummy Plane (lookAtMe) that tweens to the Plane I click on as follows:
private function planeClicked(e:InteractiveScene3DEvent):void
{
lookAtTarget.copyTransform(this);
[Code]....
The camera centers on the looAtMe Plane but doesn't rotate so that the selected Plane is straight on.

I can't seem to get hitTest to work for the plane in my little game. The code I'm using in the plane MC is:

playerhealth -= 20;
}

I want to the badguy plane to hit the player's plane and take a subtraction from the player's heath. I've fiddled around with using "this" instead of the full path of the playerMC - no success. My hitTest is working fine for the bullets!
