I'm updating the start and end points of a Line3D object in Papervision3D. The end result works fine but there seems to be a lag from when I move the objects and for the line to redraw in the right position. I'm using the following code:
connectingLine.v0.x = startDisObj.sceneX;
connectingLine.v0.y = startDisObj.sceneY;
connectingLine.v0.z = startDisObj.sceneZ;

onEnterFrame=null, onEnterFrame=undefined & delete onEnterFrame....
Which one to use??? What are the performance considerations. If all my movieclips on-stage are running a MovieClip.prototype.onEnterFrame = function() {run initial stuff before setting onEnterFrame=null/undefined... }, will there be performance hits? It's sad that delete onEnterFrame doesn't work unless I delete the prototype enterFrame as well, which would make the clips reinitailise itself again once you declare the enterFrame prototype again (i need to do this since there's more movieclips that end up appearing on-stage, and they need to automatically initialises themselves the moment they appear).

View 2 RepliesI'm doing a project using FLARManager augmented reality and the Papervision3D library. Unfortunately, Papervision is giving me a lot of problems.My scene3D contains a DAE model and a plane. The plane has a MovieMaterial and is playing a video through FLVPlayback. The DAE and the plane are both inside the same DisplayObject3D container. FLARManager transforms the container so that everything appears through the angle of the marker.
My DAE model is a TV, the screen of the TV is transparent. I want to have my Plane inside of my DAE model, so that the Movie playing on the plane material appears to be what is playing on the TV.The problem is that, even if the plane has a lower Z index then the TV, it always appears in front of the TV.
How do I have my plane and its MovieMaterial appear behind the TV, so that some of its corners are cut out by the TV and the part of the TV thats transparent let me see the Movie? If its impossible, anyone has an idea of how I could get the desired effect of having a movie play on the screen of my DAE tv model?

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 RepliesWhat is the best technique to apply anti-aliased text as texture on cube using papervision3d?
make dynamic textfield, convert it to moviematerial then apply it to the faces of cube. Design a bitmap using any picture editor and make a bitmapFileMaterial to apply on faces of cube.

I have an object in Papervision3d that the user needs to be able to zoom into a considerable amount. At Flash's maximum bitmap size of 2880x2880 the texture is too blurred at the maximum zoom. Even going beyond this to the sizes available in Flash 10 do not help.Is there any way to build a BitmapMaterial that can pull from a set of tiled 2880x2880 images?Is there any other way to load a larger texture into Papervision3D?

View 1 RepliesI try to create a dynamic web gallery in flash that feeds it's content from a XML DB, so it's easy to update and maintain the gallery (right?!). What I have, is the gallery specs in the flash movie itself:
// container dimensions
// is that even necessary?
movieW = 650;
movieH = 600;

and then the gallery process - so how can I subsitute this for a XML DB?
Have an XML that holds variables in place of hard-coded values. Then create a Flash app that will populate the XML to be used via Flash app.Currently...I have a Flash app that brings in XML data, but we have to manually put in the data into the XML file. I would like to create another app that will allow people who don't want to get into the XML file to be able to input that data into a Flash GUI and click on a 'submit' button that will populate the XML file automatically.
View 1 RepliesThere is a function that I use all the time written in AS2 with buttons and rollovers to create a smooth animation in and out that doesn't relly on gotoAndPlay or gotoAndStop methods (as I have found them to be quite buggy.

How can I rewrite the AS2 function to work the same way in AS3.This is the AS2 Code

Is there a way once a flash site is live, that my client can change the text or even the images? Even if it's by uploading to the server? If perhaps they were all predetermined in size ect.? Similar to how HTML calls images from a folder located on the server. I'm guessing something to do with PHP? Touching upon this briefly so understand flash uses PHP to communcate outside of the swf file to complete certain tasks.
View 1 RepliesFirstly i am not sure if this is the correct forum, basically i have updated my flash movie on my website, and the updates have taken effect in mozilla and google chrome, however in IE 7 & 8 the old flash movie still displays. I get this is down to the cache and i have tried several code snippets to correct this but nothing seems to make a difference.Is there anything that i can do with the flash code to force the browsers to reload the the movie each time they visit?
View 2 RepliesI have external as3 classes but when I edit something like content_txt.text = 'something else' it doesn't even change on the flash app on the server.
Even when I change the background color of my flash app, republish it and put in on the server to replace the old one. Still the old one is displayed.
How can I get around this? cause it's very frustrating to learn and develop stuff that won't cooperate. I'm trying to have facebook integration if anyone's asking.
I have a dynamic textfield on my stage with the instance name trackText.

I have a flash slideshow that has buttons at the bottom..when one of the images is displaying, it sets the buttons to load a webpage, when the next images load, the buttons are set to load a different website. I am using an external actionscript file for the links. However, after I publish the flash file, then when I go to change the links in the flash file by opening in notepad, changing the link, then saving it as the same file name, when I run the .swf it doesn't update the link that it is supposed to go to when you click on a button.
View 5 RepliesI'm just about to uninstall and reinstall at this point but I'm getting my install all screwed up trying to update Flash Pro CS5.5 to use Flash Player 11. I had it fine using the MXP provided in this adobe blog. Though that's 11.0 not 11.1. It did work however.
I downloaded the latest Flash Player / Debugger .exe and the latest SWC for 11.1 and now Stage3D is no longer being seen. Clearly I screwed something up. I uninstalled and reinstalled the MXP after deleting the FP11 XML and FP11 directory but it's not working anymore.
Is there a clear cut simple way to explain how to overlay the latest Flash Player for FPCS5.5? I used the AIR overlay instructions for 2.6 - 3.1 and it worked every time. Now I just need Flash Player overlay instructions. I'm very interested to start trying to Starling framework with Stage3D. I select FP11 to export and it tells me it can't find Stage3D.
