When I run this code I get the following error
"TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor."

I guess it has something to do with "var santaBitmap:Bitmap = new santaAsset() as Bitmap;"
But I'm not sure.
Maybe it's the program I use? -> flash 9.0 CS3

Any of you guys have an idea?

The null problem was my fault. I tried to declare it before it was loaded. I’d still love to see the video you’re talking about here though. It’s even one step harder to learn Papervision3D when you have to set up all of the Flex examples to Flash.

Unlike most of your examples, this did not compile correctly in flash cs3. I’m getting a different error at runtime though. #1009 null object reference. did you ever make the video tutorial about importing your examples to flash? I’ve not had a problem yet doing that with your examples until now. thanks for all you’ve taught me.

im having an issue with all types of shaders. as soon as i apply a shaded material to my planes which are set up in the shape of a cube they all seem to get bigger.

any ideas why?

Hi John! You’re examples are awesome!
I have one issue here, however. I’ve implemented this solution in a project, where the plane can turn all the way around and the light doesn’t seem to interact with the back face although the bitmap is visible.
I’ve set doubleSided to true for both the BitmapMaterial and the ShadedMaterial. When I set it for the PhongShader it throws an error (==undefined property).
Keep up the good work!

@Phil – I imagine you’re using Flash instead of FlexBuilder. I’ll be putting together a video tutorial of how to import the examples into Flash when I get back home next week.

Heya, i’ve got a problem over here!
When i’m exporting my swf i’ve got Error #1007 output.
The thing is it does that even with your original source code… Any tips on that?

I really like that your examples are written in OOP. This is important for people who are new to AS3. I also like the simple example illustrating shading material. I wish, though, that your examples would have more comments in the code. Keep it up!
