i have an animated collada of envelope module that have an animation of opening itself
now for seeing both sides of the envelope i set the
oneSide = false
i added for tests a ColorMaterial.
but what i want is to have 1 color in the outside faces and another color in the inside faces
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 RepliesHow can i control a collada model animations with papervision3D? And why everthing i find for papervision3D is 2008 or 2009 dated? is this library death?
View 1 RepliesI have a movie clip which has two frames. On the first frame I have the front side and on the second I have the back. I am rotating the MovieClip by rotationX, rotationY, rotationZ properties.I want to display the frame 2 when the MovieClip rotates. Please help. I dont want to use PaperVision class. Also, please consider the Perspective View of the scene.Sometimes, the MovieClip might not only be dependent on rotation. It is also equally dependent on the position (only in Perspective View).
View 3 RepliesI 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 don't see how i can make a cube's material double sided. I need this as i am flying thru a cube.

I'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?
im very new at papervision3d, i know in order to display a .DAE model i use this

But how can i do in order to use VRML models (.WRL).
I'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,
View 3 Repliesi need to make a loader on flash or a simple label who say "wait, the model is loading". This is the part of my script were i load the model, but how to control the loading process.

_earth.load('model/hfarm.DAE');

I 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.

View 2 Repliesive got two template which ive seen online which i would like to make now purchasing them cost quite a lot so im looking to make these templates one or the other here the info on the templates:
template 1: templateaction.com/space-cube-flash-cms-template
template 2: templateaction.com/cube-flash-cms-template
on the website if you click live preview you will know what im looking for. now i researched a bit and notice that the cube in these templates is made in papervision3d and found a tutorial on that:gotoandlearn.com/play.php?id=68 now how can i make one or the other of these templates as their are the exact thing im looking for, for my project can anyone help me out. editing the cube is not a problem i could make it on click go to websites or scenes in flash, but the thing is im not a expert in flash or papervision3d so i need help to get the type of features in the templates on the cube.
I 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 RepliesI'm making a game where I have must have some objects like weapons and characters, which I in the end would like to get visual as a sprite or movieclip
Should I write the logic for the objects in several classes and then make a reference to the object in a sprite class like the following :
[Code]...
And then when I need to do damage just call the WeaponSprite's method weaponModel() when I need to acces the methods or should I just merge the two together into one class.?
I know already that Double click event is not available for iOS(iPhone, iPad).But for example google map or other drawing applications have function of double click to scale up.
I have found sample program at Web. But I cannot found the ActionScript3 program to implement double lick event for Air for iOS.
As it is said here: [URL] "If you do a Google search today for "MVVM and Flex", the first post is by somebody who claims that MVVM is not a good fit for Flex. I couldn't disagree more. Out of the box, the Flex framework makes it much easier to implement a Presentation Model than similar MVVM implementations in Silverlight. That is not to say that there aren't good third-party libraries that make it easier in Silverlight, but without any help, it is easier to do in Flex." So MVVM as LOGICAL CONCEPT can be implemented in both but the way it is implemented in Silverlight requires more Plumbing than Flex.
What prevents Silverlight MVVM to be implemented like Flex ? Doesn't Silverlight have same capability in event system to do the same? If yes why does Silverlight do things more complicated what's the advantages then ? Is it about using Class Interfaces which are more strongly typed? What are the disadvantages also ? For example as for implementing MULTIPLE VIEWS for 1 View-Model does Flex implementation make it also more obvious?
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 1 RepliesI'm moving on to my next massive programming project and I'm trying to decide whether I should code it in as 2.0 or 3.0. I came across the new click event model in 3.0. Right now it's looking like a pain in the butt to me. So now I have to make a function and add it as an event listener? what the hell? What's the benefit? I understand stuff like this makes AS a more complete language but it's kinda annoying.

What 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.

View 1 RepliesI 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 4 RepliesI've been asked to create a model of an airport. Very basic. No textures and only simple shapes to represent check in zones, stairs, restaurants etc. It needs to be able to animate from floor to floor in birds eye view and to the outside of the building at an eye level view. It will be an annotated clip that plays following a persons movements. It needs to be incorporated into an adobe air application. I'm not sure even what software i should use for this. bear in mind i don't have any experience with 3D packages like 3DS Max. I suppose its possible in Flash Professional but can imagine drawing it all being a bit of a pain, is there something out there more suited?
