Tutorials from Mike Lively

Mike Lively was kind enough to post the following tutorials to the pv3d mailing list. I haven’t looked through them personally, but I figure there’s got to be something in there for someone:

“Hi,

Our group just finished a bunch of tutorials on YouTube with the Source Code
released on Google Code. Everything is in Flex 3, Papervsion3D (Great
White), and (two tutorials) Wow. Thought I would release them on this forum.
You might find some of them useful.

I’ve been debating whether or not to post this example because I’m planning on walking you through how it’s done with a video tutorial. There are a bunch of small steps needed to arrive at this end result:

I decided that some of you will be familiar enough with the process (using BasicView, using SWCs, etc.) to just take the source included in the link below and run with it. For everyone else, ask questions or wait for the video tutorial. I apologize ahead of time for the sloppy code as I rushed this out the door ;)
