[Papervision3D] Can't seem to figure out Cameras

[o renken]

try:
camera.target = yourColladaDO3D

camera.y = some number

have a look in your collada: is it at 0,0,0 in your third party app?


org.papervision3d.core.math.Number3D

youre working with the flash-ide? its hard to handle all that import-stuff
by hand.
