Hello there,
I’m currently looking to develop a personal website for myself, I’m a musician and producer based in London, and have a whacky idea for a website produced in Away3d. The problem is, my vision outweighs my skill :)

I’ve been struggling with figuring out Away3d for a while, and have a heavy work schedule on, so it’s ulimtaely time to get in some help.

For the site, I was thinking of having a virtual recording studio you can walk about in, with various rooms being the various sections on the website. I have no problem in modelling the 3d components in Blender or similar, even creating the entire scene… but importing that into Away3D and getting navigation and interactivity gets the best of me.

I was wondering if you’d be interested in a collaboration to bring this site to life? It could be an awesome showcase for Away3d, and of course I will pay for your help… but I’d need to know how much you could do it for.

If you could let me know if you’re available to help me bring a 3d recording studio to life, I’d really appreciate it

Best,
David Hearn

Comment on Nice and shiny! Phong reflection in Papervision3D by Ben

Ben — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 17:38:23 +0000

I love this example!! This shows how to do 3d reflections correctly. Nice work!!

I can’t get it to compile, currently I have this error among others:

1144: Interface method drawTriangle in namespace org.papervision3d.core.render.draw:ITriangleDrawer is implemented with an incompatible signature in class com.tartiflop:ModifiedPhongMaterial. phongreflection/src/com/tartiflop ModifiedPhongMaterial.as line 22 1256146501281 1977

But still it’s amazing!

Comment on First steps in Away3D : Part 1 - Getting started by Todd Adams

Todd Adams — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 18:18:43 +0000

I am having trouble with these examples and Flashbuilder 4 beta 2. I followed the directions twice and I have tried setting the project up as both flex 3.4 and flex 4.0 but I get the message “This File cannot be Launched”. I started fro scratch each time, deleted all files and projects and had an empty folder. I drag and dropped the away3d library files into the the project file and it places them in the file hierarchy correctly and I create a new actionscript class and replace the contents with the first example above, but I always get that same message. Is there something else I have to wrap, or a header file or something I have to switch on first? Im very new to AS and Flex.

Comment on Passing/Returning objects to/from C++ using Alchemy by Tim Knip

Tim Knip — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 19:54:06 +0000

void *self apparently can be use to “keep state”. Whatever that means :-) If one passes something other then NULL to AS3_Val fooMethod = AS3_Function(NULL, foo); you can grab that from *self. My guess would be it can be used to “keep” values in between function calls.

To get this to work in Flash, remove the following like Roy said:

[Embed(source="/../assets/pv3d.png")] private var MyTextureImage:Class;
private var bitmap:Bitmap = new MyTextureImage();

Then add the following:

// Declared with the other variables
private var myTextureImage:MyTextureImage;
private var bitmap:Bitmap;

// Added in the Constructor
myTextureImage = new MyTextureImage(0,0);
bitmap = new Bitmap(myTextureImage);

I would really like to ask you guys, how to add flat shading onto a MovieMaterial? or rather, how to combine a MovieClip/Sprite with a flat shading material? As we know, with bitmaps, we can use WhiteShadingBitmapMaterial, but what with MovieClips? I have tried several ways and still can’t make this.

Etao — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 17:02:22 +0000

Hello again! I don´t know if it´s the best solution, but I done! I used de AS3Exporter to create a Object3D from Obj file. It works!
As I sad, I´m a hokkie in Flash. So, I used the Away3D documentation. Take a look:

var loader_tree:Object3DLoader = Obj.load(”tree/tree_obj.obj”, {name:”tree_obj”,material:matarvore, scaling:1.5, y:0, x:0, z:0, loadersize:300,ownCanvas:true, bothsides:true});
loader_tree.addOnSuccess(onLoaderSuccess);

view.scene.addChild(loader_tree);

function onLoaderSuccess(e:LoaderEvent):void

//the handle is now an Object3D, can be Mesh or ObjectContainer3D
arvore = e.loader.handle;

// properties Object3D
arvore.x = arvore.y = arvore.z = 0;

//example exporter to AS3
new AS3Exporter(arvore,”novaarvore”);
}

I would like to thanks to your tutorials. I learned a lot.
Bye.

Hi! First: congratulations and thanks! I´m new in Flash but, as a teacher, I believe 3D in Flash can be very useful for learning. My doubt may be ridiculous, but I swear I’ve tried. Please help me: I just wanna import a OBJ file to Away3D and apply a wireframe material, no faces, just wire. I can add a bitmap material, I can create a UV map, but I can´t define a wireframe material to an OBJ loader. The wireframematerial has no effect.
Twice, I like to say thanks. And sorry about my bad english.

Please help, I’ve searched everywhere but keep getting the error,

File not found:…example001.html.

I’ve tried all the suggestions I can find, changed numbers etc but nothing works. I have the same problem with other projects.

I am using Flexbuilder 3, 60 day trial, and I am totally new at this.

I’ve spent two weeks trying to find the problem and I’m going.. mad!

Thanks a lot for the tutorials. They have proved to be very useful (and encouraging!). I’m having a problem getting the video to appear on the side of the cube though. Aside from the new security restrictions, I’ve tried downloading a simple FLV and using that locally but I get error# 2148 displayed on the cube where the video should be. I’m using Away3D v3.3.3 and version 10 of the player.

Hey,

Thanks for your time to write this tutorial first of all. I am trying to get an interactive material on the top of a cylinder object. I can see you managed to do that in your example (http://www.tartiflop.com/away3d/FirstSteps/Example003.swf) but i can’t seem to get that to work with Away3D version 2.3.

I am getting the bitmap material right on the billboard section but i can’t seem to control the top and bottom section of the object.

My code:
private function initMaterials():void {
_material = new BitmapMaterial( Cast.bitmap(pattern01Bitmap));

I can’t figure why but errors occur when I try to run Example001.as in Flex about the property Vector. Do you know why ?

Hello,
I am having trouble with getting tweener to work. I have followed the same SVN instructions as away3D, but it doesnt want to work. I assume its because I need to input something different for the “main source folder” and “output folder” but I am not sure what folders to use…
your assistance with this would be very awesome!
many thanks,
Nathan

hi, my object_click doesn’t fire every time i click my object, sometimes I would have to click all over it and/or repeatedly. my object uses BitmapMaterial and PhongShader combined into a ShadedMaterial (this is the proper way right?) and I have the ShadedMaterial interactive set to true. object_over and object_out both work perfectly but object_click just doesn’t fire each and every time, what am I doing wrong? please help, thank you
