I have a problem: i want to let users edit the texture of a collada object(it is a bottle, a cocacola bottle). After loading collada object, is it possible to let user edit texture of it(upload their own image as texture)?
View 1 RepliesI'm actually relatively new to flash and actionscript but I could say I have fair knowledge about them. So anyway, I usually build flash websites the traditional way using timeline animation and scripting. Today I had a job interview and they said they're looking for someone who can develop any web design into a Flash CMS with a back-end office for the client to edit the content without having to edit the FLA file or any code.
Accordingly, I'd like to know where and how to start. What are the main concepts I should follow/adapt?
I have a Collada (.dae) file that I found on Google's 3d Warehouse. Using Away3d, I'm able to load the file and display it on my view using the following code:
var object3d = Collada.parse(FooXML, { material:"white", x:0, y:0, z:0 });
view.scene.addChild(object3d);
The problem is that it's just floating out in space and no matter how I adjust the position via .x, .y, or .z, it never moves from its spot. I'm using Flash cs4 and the latest stable release from Away3d.
I am trying to map an image(webcam image or dynamic image) on an collada object(head). In fact I have a head, and I would like to put my face on it . Something like that[url]..
How to stretch the dynamic picture so it can fit the mapping ? Match the eyes with the eyes, the nose with the (UV map) nose,... and draw the new bitmap
having a weird issue with a loaded Collada model. I'm not getting any errors as such, and I can trace out the collada's position etc, I just can't see it! Am I missing something stupid? Or is it a bad collada model, and if so how do I test for it? I thought it might be a texture issue, but I tried other collada models without textures and they show up as wireframes straight away.Here's the code:
Code: Select allpackage
{
import flash.display.Sprite;

I am attempting to create a custom Collada parser. I Think I'm getting something wrong with the uv's. Attached is the class. Also attached is my model class so you can see the exact methods I am using to render.
View 2 Repliesi'm doing a materialtest with papervision, using some collada-objects that i load with the DAE-class. one thing that i didnt get to work is creating a shadedmaterial, not a shader as a material but combining a shader and my original material (loaded with the collada-file) into a new material. i dont get any errors, and when i look at examples i think i'm doing the right things, although the examples always create a new object from scratch (and add the ShadedMaterial to the fresh materialslist).What i do is load the objects, store their materials in an array (i clone them once they're loaded), and use this object-loop to create the shadedmaterial and replace it with its original.[code]The original materials are actually Bitmap FileMaterials, but since that's a subclass of BitmapMaterial i think that should work just fine. You can see my test here, every material works except for the flatshaded+bitmap, when i use that one my framerate drops dramatically but i dont see any change.URL...

View 0 RepliesI have a question regarding my implementation of a collada 3d file. This is really my first venture into the realm of 3d and I've read some of the basic tutorials so I'm not 100% clueless, but I am a bit confused by what is appearing with the following class (this is a document root class, loaded by the .fla file): the images I loaded to skin the board with are showing up, but just in specific triangles. I want it to skin across the whole board. Is [code]there something special I need to do to achieve this?Also, my final goal with this project is to skin (texture map) one side of the board with a bitmap (drawn from an MC) and the other side with a different bitmap.
View 0 RepliesAnyone using Collada files from Cinema 4D for Papervision?The model loads fine but if there is more than one object in the scene it applies the first material to all of them rather than their respective ones. My output in flash says this:
Code: Select allINFO: BitmapFileMaterial: Loading bitmap from BodySurface_Color.png
INFO: BitmapFileMaterial: Loading bitmap from HeadSurface_Color.png
INFO: BitmapFileMaterial: Loading bitmap from ShaftSurface_Color.png
INFO: BitmapFileMaterial: Loading bitmap from TipSurface_Color.png

When I look inside the collada file I see "Material1" used a lot in places where I think there should be proper material names from the 3d program.Ive attached the DAE and the textures if anyone can help, this was all working fine from the same model exported from Maya so I have a feeling its bad exporting from c4d.
How to anti-alias a collada model in papervision3D?I've tried searching everywhere but didn't find any ways to anti-alias models. I've also tried blurring it a little as an anti-alias method but that only f-s it up and makes it look worse.How do I do that properly?
View 1 RepliesI'm working with Collada files and I need them to be a certain size. When instantiating them in pv3d you set the filename, materials, and scale. Scale works like a percentage, and there's no way to get the width, height, or depth of the DAE once in flash. I want to be able to specify the size of DAE in 3D space relative to other pv3d native geometry.

View 1 Replieshow to change the geometry to something exported from maya using collada but the problem lies when i rotate the object. the cube rotates just fine but any toher geometry that isnt a perfect square gets all fecked up when you rotate. as you can see from the shape i have currently the top and bottom rotate just fine. im guessing it has to do with the math.cos and math.sin but really not sure.
View 0 RepliesI've been trying all day to get the Papervision3D Collada Basics tutorial to work and every time I run the file I end up with an empty black screen. No matter what I've tried i cannot get anything to show up. Finally I had the idea to download the source files from the tutorial and run those 'as is' without changing anything. When I opened the SWF created by Lee, all i saw was the same blank black screen. Has anyone else run into this? All other Flash files seem to be fine,

I was wondering if anyone knew of a place to download stock collada files relatively inexpensively. I am not looking to create anything to sell, just trying to learn and practice using them with PV3d.
View 1 RepliesI have created a few cool little animations with FLAR toolkit and it all works fine I am super happy with how collada files work in the AR apps that Ive made. I would like to make an animated collada file just simply loop through an animation. I am pretty sure its possible but I don't know whether the examples Ive seen use code or whether the animation is imported.
View 1 Replies I'm an animator and have always drawn with pen and paper (old schooool) and then coloured using photography in photoshop. I'm just starting a new project where I'll be using flash for the animation.
Question: If I am illustrating using the pen tool (black stroke), how can I easily colour each object with photography? As I am such a beginner the only way I know is to animate my sequence(s) then export a pdf sequence, and subsequently colour each frame individually in Photoshop.
I am becoming crazy because I really don't find a way to preload the texture image which is automatically loaded by the DAE class.
All that I want is to display the progression of the image loading, before displaying the DAE.
how i could create a background like this site has [URL]
You see there is a little texture in it, and the texture matches every screen size. The gradient effect is no problem but how can i make the texture also match every screensize?
Now I'm trying to use molehill to accelerate my collision detection effeciency, and I found out there is a function called setRenderToTexture that I can use. However, when I get a texture from that function, I cannot access pixel data in it. Does anyone knows how to deal with that, or is there another way to use molehill to do such general-purpose computation?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to import a DAE file, and it gets put on the stage, but for some reason I cannot control the scale of it. I know you have to pass a 3rd param to the Collada() constructor to be the scale, but no matter what I put there, it doesnt change the scale.Alas, I cannot get the scaleX or scaleY or scaleZ to change anything.Just need to know how to adjust the size/scale of this model.

i'm trying to achieve the effect of a rotating sphere given a regular 2D texture. the best thing i've seen is a tutorial on emanueleferonato.com which gives this result: emanueleferonato dot com /downloads/mapping09.swf as you can see, it works pretty well when you're moving left/right OR up/down. it fails to simulate realistic rolling when going in any diagonals (since it's a very simplistic illusion). how to render such a sphere given any point on a mercator projection and then have the sphere rotate in an arbitrary (but fixed) direction? this is a bit advanced math stuff.
btw, if anyone's interested, i figured a better displacement map than what is used in the link i showed
i started my search again and immediately bumped into this: [URL] it's library called BitmapSphere and it does exactly what i need it to! also, could admin edit this and put together the link or something? i find it highly annoying that i need 50 posts before being able to post a link
I have an image of a handbag. I want the user to be able to click on a fabric image and change the fabric on the handbag to whatever they selected. How to change the image texture in photoshop. Would I first have to make the change in photoshop, then somehow create a movie in flash that places those images in the .fla file. Or will flash do it all for me. That is wrapping the texture around the image each time a new one is selected.
