I have successfully imported a Lightwave generated Collada file into Flash using Papervision3dA material within the Lightwave file is called "Lambert4SG". How can I assign the "precise" property to eliminate the texture distortion. However, the material needs to be cast to BitmapMaterial in order set a BitmapMaterial specific property.
View 2 RepliesI've successfully loaded a DAE model with its own bitmap texture material. Now I want to layer an environment map over that to give it a shiny look. I'm about ready to go out of my mind---nothing seems to work. I've created my environment map material, and added it to the DAE model, but it fails to appear at all. I've cut some holes in the original bitmap material, so that I'd be able to see if the reflection was covered over, but nothing appears to be hiding underneath

I have loaded a model using the 3DS parser that is already linked to a material and loads fine. I would like to make this model semi-transparent part of the time but not all of the time. I would like to just set alpha = .5 but when I target the materal that is not an option.
Here is the code and using:

I have a site that is using aspects of papervision within an otherwise 2D environment...
In my papervision 3D room which is a class loaded into a movieclip holder, the walls of the room are taken from movie clips in the library. Some of these clips also have hotspot elements within the clip. For these, I wrote the code for the individual movie materials in their own file so that I can control the mouse events easier. Everything works fine, including the movie material tracing the click event. However, in the click event I am dispatching an event to be heard on the stage. I have my listener for it in my Main file but my stage isn't ever hearing it.
I've searched around the web trying to find out how to set the primitive Plane backside material in papervision. Unfortunately without luck. That is why I'm turning to you,My question is simple (as written above):How do I set the background material of a Plane primitive in Papversion 2.0?

View 6 RepliesI have a cube with a material on the front face. I'm trying to create a magnifying glass in 2D for the 3D cube. Can anyone offer a suggestion for how to achieve this? I was thinking I might try to find the UV under the mouse in an OBJECT_OVER InteractiveScene3DEvent and somehow get the bitmap from the material, mask it, and move it around in relation to the mouse position- mimicking a magnifying effect. How to do that, I have no clue.
View 2 RepliesI have a cube built in papervision. It has a video on each side. I want the videos to be stopped at the beginning when it appears. I thought I could just use pause on the stream. ncStream2.pause(); no luck. When I do that I just get a black box. There is no black at the beginning of the videos. I do not think the papervision part is really a big deal. It's probably just a straight forward AS3 and video problem.

And it's not working ("canno't create property visible on String"). I understand that if finds the variable to be of String type.
What i need to do is based on the switch to set a certain movieclip to go visible false or true on frame 16. I need to know how to cast the String into MovieClip.
Does anyone know how to cast a string into a uint?[code]...
But i keep getting an error stating that there is a mismatch in variable types or i get a value of '65280' when I trace myUint.I understand that uint is a positive integer but i need to accept a string for the colour value and need to convert it to a string for use.
i have a list of items that get returned from a database. the list is composed of strings. what i need to do is convert each item into a variable so that i can use each item as an array.
for instance, my array will look something like this: deviceArray = ["osx106", "osx107", "winxp", "win7"];
what i want to do is turn each item into its own array. in AS2 (iirc) we had an eval() method. that is no longer supported in AS3.
I need ActionScript Proxy to be castable to a particular interface.
Here is an example without interface:

Is it possible to Cast the DisplayObject into MediaElement.Am trying to add the DisplayObject into the MediaContainer, but I got the following error:

I have 5 different arrays for a bunch of excercises, like so:

const oef3:Array = ["boek","koek","sok"];
const oef4:Array = ["ei","bij","bot"];
const oef5:Array = ["vier","mier","muur"];
Now I want to set the current game. I do this by copying the array, like so:
var curArr:Array;
var curExc:int = 1;
curArr = ("oef" + curExc) as Array;
I can't convince flash to accept the string ("oef"+curExc) as an Array. How do I do this?
I have searched Stack Overflow extensively but I think I simply don't know the correct lingo for what I'm looking for. It's the only possible reason I can think of why I can't find the answer here because I'm sure someone must have already tried this.
I have a variable in flash:[code]I then have a multidimensional array which has this variable name in it, but as a string.[code]What I need to do is be able to reference the string item in the array, but then cast it so that when I add a number to it the ACTUAL variable with the same name will be altered - anyone know how I can do this?For reasons I won't go into I can't pass it straight into the variable, it has to go through the multidimensional array item.

Code: Select allTweener.addTween(bildArray[i], {x:(bildArray[i].x +50), time:3, transition:"linear"});
dose not worke so i need to cast it to Sprite?so i do

But it dose not work, what do i do wrong?

Can someone explain me why when I listen for a custom event and then redispath it it is redispatched as an Event instead of an object of custom event type ?
Exemple : You make un custom event, name it CustomEvent.
In a first class you dispatch an instance of this event and it is managed by a method in a second class, let's say this one :
[Code]...
I missed probably something in event dispatching process but I don't know what. However I found a solution : In the first event manager, dispatch a copy of the custom event received instead of dispatching the object itself. It works in this case.
Here's the example:
var cartesian:CartesianChart = new CartesianChart();
cartesian.width = 100;
var column:ColumnChart = new ColumnChart();
column = cartesian as ColumnChart;
Why does this not work? "column" ends up null. ColumnChart is a derived class of CartesianChart, so I would have thought I'd end up with a ColumnChart with a width of 100.
Is it possible to cast a variable as a type dynamically, where the type would be a variable of type Class? Consider the following (invalid):
var myClass:Class = MyClass;
var myInstance:myClass = new myClass();
For context: I'm working in Flex (4) to create a modal manager that will control various aspects of creating modals (via PopUpManager) and I'd like to keep it as minimal as possible. Components would be passed through the same functions, and rather than allowing any type of variable to be cast, eg:
