[Papervision3D] How do I fade without animated textures?

[Andy Zupko]

You can call viewport.getChildLayer(plane) for each plane to create/ 
get a ViewportLayer (sprite) for each object in the viewport.   
useOwnContainer does this automatically for you every render. You only  
need to call it once, however, and the layers will always be there.    
They will automatically sort by z-index, but you can make them sort by  
a specified index using:

viewport.containerSprite.sortMode = ViewportLayerSortMode.INDEX_SORT;

viewport.getChildLayer(plane).layerIndex = 1;
viewport.getChildLayer(plane2).layerIndex = 2;

etc.
