Actionscript 3.0 :: PV3D - MovieAssetMaterial Play And Stop
Jul 15, 2009
I have managed to create a Plane with a material that is a running movieClip with 8 frames. The thing is that I want to be able to play and stop that movieClip that's acting as the material of the Plane but can't seem to get to it... That movieClip called "walkingTest" that I'm using as the material, has another movieClip inside it called animatedDoll that is the one I need to play and stop.

If I use:
walkingTest.animatedDoll.stop();
I get this error:

give me the actionscript for a bar that has a play and stop button to play and stop frames in a flash movie. i would be gratefull if you could as i am really stuck
I've been trying for ages to find out how to do this exactly, but haven't had much luck, I'm trying to build a version of my portfolio site using Flash and Papervision, however, I'm having a little trouble coming up with more sophisticated interaction aside from assigning click events to individual objects.
Say I make a MovieAssetMaterial, and inside that material, I place another movieClip.
How do I target that nested movieClip so I can get it to do something? Is it even possible? From what I've researched I need to be using an "InteractiveSceneManager" but I can't find any references on how exactly to implement one.
I have a plane, in a grid (DisplayObject3D) being rendered in BasicView that has dynamic text on it. the grid, wall (whatever you want to call it) pitches and rolls, and the more it does the more the text gets warped?
I just got Flash CS3. I'm trying to get my main timeline to stop in the begining, on button press to play and at the end stop again. In AS2, you would just put stop(); on the first keyframe and stop(); on the last key frame and program your buttons accordingly.
The stop(); does not work!!!! It's driving me crazy. What am I missing? I've gone through the tutorials in Flash and they don't work either.Also, if you have MovieClip that contains an animation and you don't want the movie clip to be on a continuous loop how do you stop it from playing. In AS2, I would put a stop(); on the last keyframe of the movieclip's animation. This also does not work in AS3.
Is it possible to play and stop a number of frames later, without using stop() in the frames? Like when I click a button frame 20 will start playing and it stops 30 frames later, all defined by the actions of the button..

I have created two buttons for separate audio files. Essentially if you click on the button it will play and stop. This works great! I have also injected a SoundMixer.stopAll(); to ensure if you click between both buttons that it will stop the current audio file to play the next one. My problem is when I select the 2nd button for the first time everything seems to be working...it's when I attempt to click on the first button again, that it will require 2 clicks and then it stops and plays accordingly...anyone know how I could eliminate this annoying two click process?
I want a movie clip (let's call it homecontent_MC) with 100 frames play to frame 80 and stop.Then when someone clicks a button on the navigation bar (home, about, services, contact, etc...) homecontent_MC would then begin playing from it's position (frame 80) til it reaches 100, at which point it wouldn't be on screen, and the movie clip that corresponds to the navigation button press (say services_MC...) would start from frame 1 and continue til it stops at it's frame 80...
I have modified the original to include more head shots accompanied by audio clips. I have worked out the playing of the clips on release. I realize now that people may not want to listen to entire clip. Each mug shot serves as the button to hear the person talk. I do not know how to modify the button code for it to be a toggle. I guess it would need to be some kind of "play if, stop if" The only part of concern is loading playing the the audio, no changes need to be made to the rollover functionality.
mugWidth = 60; //change these if you change the size of your mugshots mugHeight = 60; //change to your mugshot height //instantiate sound and textformat classes
how I might go about integrating a 2D layer on top of a Papervison layer.
my goal: attach some 2D elements to a 3d object that is shifting rotation in 3dspace. Specifically, I want to draw a 2d line - x/y origin is the bottom right corner of the plane.
1. Height? Width? I can obtain the screen coordinates of a given displayObject3D with the screen property, but this gives me the coordinates of the center of the object. I simply haven't found a method to return the value of a related coordinate (the bottom right corner...) Since pv3d is projecting the object as a flattened 2d image at render time, you would think there would be a built in method to get such a thing. I've played around with papervisions built in drawing api, and it does a fine job of replicating the 2d api - so that might be an option if I can't find the coords in a predictable way.
2. translating zoom and focus of the camera into a predictable pixel values. If I have a plane that I know the 3d location of, and, hypothetically, the camera is viewing it squarely, how would I take into account the zoom and focus to translate the initial dimensions of the plane into pixel perfect height/width values? (for example, to place a 2d rectangle over the 3d content.) I can do a scale hack where I've applied a manual multiplier (just through trial and error), but its not exactly pixel perfect...
how event propagation works in PV3D its definitely not like the conventional Flash style. On a quick search i have been able to find out that its possible using the InteractiveSceneManager Class, but unfortunately
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:
I'm wondering if its possible to use for example Papervision or something similar to make a drag and drop action in 3d space. But when I say drag and drop I mean, you drag the object and then place it in its correct spot, if you do not, then you receive an incorrect message for example.
i'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...
The effect I would like to achieve is when the plane around the sphere is clicked, the sphere rotates so that the plane is in the middle of the stage. but there always some problems when i clicked the plane the sphere seems like never rotate to it's back.[code]
I have this script that creates a Tiltviewer effect and it works perfectly as long as you're on the page. However, if you switch focus to another browser window or tab, it begins to spin wildly and even takes a while to recover when the user comes back to the page.
I've been playing with this PV3D gallery that I found and dissecting and trying to learn everything I can, but I want to see if its possible to add hyperlinks to the images. Basically when the image resizes, I want it also to load a hyperlink after you click it again to remove the Image. I've included all the SourceCode in a zip file. If anyone can take a look and give me some pointers it would be awesome! edit*all the images are XML driven, I've tried making hyperlinks in the XML itself, but the way these gallery is setup is to load(img) not load(url)
As part of a papervision project I need to render html text on to a plane. I've done this using a MovieMaterial and the html text renders perfectly as one would expect, except that any Code: Select all<a href=""> tags used in the html aren't working? Has anybody else experienced this problem? I've set the material to Code: Select allinteractive=true and that's working because buttons on the same material are working, just the html links aren't.
I'm trying to create multiple objects in Papervision using Flash Builder, each one with it's own texture that I'm getting from an imported SWC.My code works perfectly if I apply one texture to all shapes, but when I try to put it into a loop I can't seem to get it to work. I think this is more of a syntax problem, I'm just not sure how to tell Flex what I want.Here's a chunk of the code that works fine, applying an "img1" texture to everything: [code]Does that make sense? I want each iteration of the loop to add a number to the end of "img" and apply that to the shape.
With some great tutorials on the web, I have created an interactive cube in PV3d with a movieAssetMaterial for one the faces. I would like to add a fully functional video player to this face. I have code for an AS3 video player that I placed in the main fla on the movie clip that acts as the material. The video streams in fine, but the interface does not work. I'm wondering if this is a scope issue, a problem with adding events to a movie asset material, or some other problem. The video player code is attached. I have the video player code inside the movieAssetMaterial.
I've created 4 cubes, which turn on Rollover and Rollout, and on Click they should move to new x y coordinates.The Rollover and out on the faces (workfront,workback) work fine, but i don't get it right to put the Click on the whole cube.if tried to address it with workcube.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, workclick); but that doesn't work.if i address it with this or without workcube all my cubes react to the click
I was recently trying to import some collada models from 3d studio max into flash. verything looks fine, but I have some kind of error which rather shouldn't appear: Quote:'MaterialObject3D: transformUV() material.bitmap not found!'I've found some answers by googling it, but I'm not sur
I have added 2 text3D textfields for each plane that gets rendered via xml.Everything works fine, yet as more planes get added via xml the carousel slows down considerably.If I remove the text3D fields the carousel rotates very smooth and at normal speed. Is this just a limitation of text3D in Papervision3D or is there a way to optimize this better? Yes, smooth is set to false and images have been optimized.
I have just started with a complete new flash project with only one scene and a few buttons and one movieclip (for a button with sound and animation). Already now at the beginning the problems start - the movieclip plays although I have put in the head timeline:
stop();
The same problem when I put in the rest:
instans1.onPress = function (){ play();}instans2.onPress = function (){ gotoAndStop(50);}
I have an mc placed on the main stage that I'm trying to control through a separate button. I want the mc to play until a certain frame number is reached and then stop. I've got the following actionscript on the button instance:
Code: on(rollOver){ if (mc._currentframe == 10){ mc.stop()
[Code]....
This is not working at all - the mc is not stopping at frame 10, just looping continuously
