[Papervision3D] Getting started

[frederik delmotte]

Mark,
really nice explanation... just one thing.
i think if you use PV3D 2.0 you don't have to add a sprite anymore into a
Scene3D.

[...Setting up the initial scene is different - in a good way [image:
:)]You no longer create a sprite container to pass to Scene3D, nor do
you pass
a boolean value for interactivity to Scene3D. Viewport3D extends Sprite, and
includes the ability to do:

   - auto resizing/centering
   - interactivity
   - autoClipping
   - autoCulling

....  ]
this comes from http://www.rockonflash.com/blog/?cat=19
cheers,
F
