Does 3d work in flash? If so, links to a quick tutorial? All I want to figure out is how would one draw a block on stage. Bonus points if you can tell me how I can have 6 movieclip on each of the 6 faces on the cube.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to use startDrag with a movie clip that contains a 3D cube (comprised of 3D planes). It only moves the face of the cube, but not the other sides. Can one use startDrag in 3D space, or is there another method?
View 2 RepliesI created a rotating cube using the below code and add bitmaps as sides of the cube. I was wondering if it's possibly to assign movie clips as sides of the cube so I can have some interaction with them.

I made a game and i had 3 faces on it. Now i added one more and when i play it, i see only two.

I DL the kirupa source code 3D ButtonCube and i am wondering how can add/attach a different link to each faces? Basically i want to make this 3D cube function like a menu.
View 1 RepliesI followed the following article to deal with ViewExpiredException -
It does what it is supposed to do. But I wanted to have some FacesMessage displayed on view if the user was redirected to it due to ViewExpiredException. So, I added a FacesMessage before redirection using NH.handlenaviage(). But it didn't work, and the reason was that the FacesMessage survived only one Request Processing Cycle.
At first my solution was to save the message in the session and retrieve it before Restore View phase of next cycle.
Even though it worked, I started looking for some standard solution and the first thing that I came across was the following article -
Persist and pass FacesMessages over multiple page redirects
But it didn't work. I think it's because the PhaseListeners are executed before ExceptionHandlers. So, in this case it was useless.[code]...
I've got a game were you click and a plane moves towards that spot, the problem is making it face were you clicked. i can get it so that the plane faces towards the mouse but thats not really what i want.

View 1 RepliesThe problem relates from trying to create BitmapMaterials from scaled bitmap images. Away3D is being used, but I guess the principles at work are general. The source images are of different sizes and scales. The idea is to map the images onto a 400*300 mesh, adding empty space to the sides of the image when the scales differ - so, for example, an overwide image would be scaled down to have a width of 400, with blank space being used to fill gaps at the top and bottom of the image. An initial function creates a mesh, and adds two faces using the material. This works perfectly. However, a near identical function is used to remove the faces and replace them with new faces using a different image, and this produces an incorrect scale - the faces end up displaying the zoomed center of the source image.
Here's the ActionScript Code:
//WIDTH = 400 , HEIGHT = 300
var loadedBitmap:Bitmap = event.currentTarget.content as Bitmap;
var newBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData( WIDTH, HEIGHT, true, 0xff );
var targetRect : Rectangle = new Rectangle( 0, 0, loadedBitmap.width,
loadedBitmap.height );

I have a question about Papervision3D, or perhaps bitmapData, I am unsure where the problem is. I have constructed a program that takes 4 banners and splits them into pieces and then applies those pieces to cubes so that I can make a banner rotator. So after I run my program I have 10 cubes with a piece of a banner on 4 faces(front, top, back, bottom) of each cube. The problem is that some of the faces are oriented incorrectly(spun 180 degrees). Is there a way in Papervision3D to spin a cube face? The other place I think the problem may be is when I create the bitmapData that will be applied to the cube faces.
View 3 RepliesI am trying to create an avatar that faces the position of the cursor and follows a walking loop while it moves towards the mouse click anywhere on the stage. I need certain walking loops that are used by the script when the cursor is either North, Diagnal positions etc. Also I need the same when its idle.

I'm working in Away3d and have hit a road block.I'm creating an abstract primitive (that looks like a pentagon) made from 5 faces, each of which is determined by dynamically generated vertices. I can't just use the regular polygon class because the placement of the object has to be exact.
Here's the issue:I need to 'cover' the abstract primitive in a bitmap.So all five faces need to be covered in one bitmap.But my code (below) results in each face getting covered by its own bitmap.So instead of looking like a pentagon covered with the image, you can see each face individually covered by a different copy of the bitmap.
var ap:AbstractPrimitive = new AbstractPrimitive();
var bmm:BitmapMaterial = new BitmapMaterial(Cast.bitmap("roundDoor"));
ap.bothsides = true; [code]....
I'm doing an art project in Flash where I'd like to make realalistic line drawings of girl's faces with lines represing long flowy hair. I want to make the hair appear to be flowing in the air as if a cool breeze is blowing on it.
I tried drawing these lines for the hair flowing in the air frame by frame, but it just doesn't look natural. I was wondering if anyone knows of a solution I should do with Action Script. I have a couple specific questions in addition to my request for an AS solution to create the look of natural looking flowing hair.
1) Can AS create photorealistic natureal looking hair?
2) Can AS creates a natural looking animation of the hair moving in a sequential, breezy flow?
3) If yes and yes, how can the file size be kept low while still maintaining the apperance of a photorealistic drawing?

View 5 RepliesI'm new to 3D in Flash, I've worked for a while with basic CS4 3D functions (rotation flat objects basically).
Now, I want to create a cube dynamically and start working with it.Since I don't want to start messing around with Papervision or Away3D for a basic cube.
I wanted to know how I can create a cube using AS3 in CS4?
I need to make a 3D cube menu. All 6 faces should be a link to another scene (or basically just a link to anything). For rotation wise, it should turn towards the left when the user click and drag the cursor from left to right.[URL]

I'm trying to create a Rubik's Cube in Flash & Papervision and i'm really stuck here. I'm up to the point where i can rotate any plane of cubes once, but after that...it's messed up because all local coordinate systems are messy.I dont really know where to go from here, can anybody give any advice on what do do? I'm not looking for 'read about transformation matrices', i know i should (and i am doing that), but i'm not really sure what to look for.My idea is that, after each rotation, i should fix each coordinate system of each cube again, but i have no idea how. Any hints on what i want to achieve (in words)

Ive created very similar cube in papervision except bitmap on walls.how can i rotate my cube like in appendix?
View 2 RepliesI can get the cube root of a number by setting the index to a third:
ActionScript Code:
Math.pow(27, 1/3)
In this case though, the result is NaN
ActionScript Code:
Math.pow(-27, 1/3)
Why doesn't flash just assume that the result I am after is the simple result of -3? Also, how can I get around this?
