[Papervision3D] Creating custom class that Extends Cube

[Steve D]

Instead of this = new Cube(), use super().

 public function CubeNavItem() {
                       var material1:ColorMaterial = new
ColorMaterial(0x646500);
                       super(material1, 300, 15, 125, 2, 2, 2);
               }
