I have downloaded the latest Papervision files from Google and I am using Flash CS3. I want to set up my plane so it is pitched from the horizontal about 30 degrees or an isometric view of a plane. Most of the planes I have seen in tutorials are vertical. How do you set the plane so it is horizontal?

Do these need to be in a onEnterFrame event or something? Code: var plane:Plane = new Plane(mm, 400, 400, 10, 10); scene.addChild(plane); //plane.pitch(70); //plane.roll(0); //plane.yaw(0); // render the plane renderer.renderScene(scene, camera, viewport); //button controls rotateX_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, rotateAboutX, false, 0, true); rotateY_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, rotateAboutY, false, 0, true); rotateZ_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, rotateAboutZ, false, 0, true); pitch_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, pitchUp, false, 0, true); roll_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, rollLeft, false, 0, true); yaw_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, yawY, false, 0, true); function rotateAboutX(evt:MouseEvent):void{ plane.rotationX += 20; }; function rotateAboutY(evt:MouseEvent):void{ plane.rotationY -= 20; }; function rotateAboutZ(evt:MouseEvent):void{ plane.rotationZ -= 20; }; function pitchUp(evt:MouseEvent):void{ plane.pitch(20); }; function rollLeft(evt:MouseEvent):void{ plane.roll(20); }; function yawY(evt:MouseEvent):void{ plane.yaw(20); };

But I need a little more interactivity. First how do I change the material from one kind to another? Suppose I have two buttons each represent a different material. If I click on one how do I tell papervision to switch the material?

I have a room image that I want to place over top of my papervision. In my flash movie the room is in the top layer but the scene appears over top of it. Is there away to put the 3d scene or the room above? Attachments: screen1.jpg [ 11.06 KiB \| Viewed 364 times ]
