me too!if you don't mind...another quick question for the guru...Is there a way to tap into the verticies from the imported collada file.  and any primite for that matter.Bascially I want to edit those vertices to move them around a bit.  I've seen bend and ascollada, but bend doesn't work with collada files, and I couldnt find any examples of using ascollada (it might also be overkill).I'm thinking something as simple as having a function that loops through the data and editing the vertices on render tick etc...Cheers,Al

you need to leave the file assigned to the 3d object in your 3D application and make sure you give it a name (the material that is)then, with your code, you're missing an argument with addMaterial:var matsList:MaterialsList = new MaterialsList();matsList.addMaterial(materialYouCreated, "nameOfMaterialFrom3DApplication");Then, DAE will see that you provided a material and will use that

Hello all!I've finally got my collada model into papervision and it looks good.  It's just a simple polygon mesh.  The thing is, the texture works fine when I embed it via collada.  But when i omit the texture in the 3d app, export like that, then try to pass a material to the collada constructor in flash, it won't work.It gives me:  Collada material  not found.Here's the just of the code:        protected function loadBitmap():void {            material = new BitmapFileMaterial();            material.addEventListener(FileLoadEvent.LOAD_COMPLETE, handleFileLoaded);            material.texture = "flower_text.jpg";            material.oneSide = false;            material.smooth = false;            list = new MaterialsList();            list.addMaterial(material);        }        protected function handleFileLoaded(e:FileLoadEvent):void {            //init collada scaffold object            for (var i:uint = 1; i<7; i++) {                this["test"+i] = new Collada("test.dae", list, 0.2);                this["test"+i].y = i*500;                     scene.addChild(this["test"+i]);            }        }Basically my issue is that I would like the polygon mesh/plane to have the texture on both sides of it - it looks like it's culling.  I'd dont want to have to make it closed as this will use more polygons.  I did see a post with a special doublesidedmaterial class, and I tried to implement it with no avail.  Can anyone give a simple code example of how to import a collada file and assign it a double sided material / bitmap?Pretty pretty please?Cheers all,Al_______________________________________________Papervision3D mailing listPapervision3D at osflash.orghttp://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/papervision3d_osflash.org-- [ JPG ]_______________________________________________Papervision3D mailing listPapervision3D at osflash.orghttp://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/papervision3d_osflash.org-- Allan Estabillo647 50 IDEASwww.aedesign.ca_______________________________________________Papervision3D mailing listPapervision3D at osflash.orghttp://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/papervision3d_osflash.org-- [ JPG ]_______________________________________________Papervision3D mailing listPapervision3D at osflash.orghttp://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/papervision3d_osflash.org-- Allan Estabillo647 50 IDEASwww.aedesign.ca
