How to click on stuff in Papervision3D – Viewport, ViewportLayers, InteractiveScene3DEvent, Mouse3D, and MovieMaterial Buttons

Saturday, June 13th, 2009 | tutorials, videos

I’ve been super busy the past couple months and tomorrow I’m heading to Alaska to take a week-long vacation. I thought to myself, “this isn’t fair to my readers, I haven’t provided any quality original content on pv3d.org in a long time.” So, I took a couple hours tonight to answer pretty much every question on interacting with stuff in Papervision3D in the following five videos. That’s right, five videos explaining the ins and outs of working with interactivity events in Papervision3D. Just don’t say I never did anything nice for you :)

    just wondering... when you're importing movieclips into papervision... can you 'DEFINE' functionality within these clips or class files in these clips and simply invoke the constructor?

    or does the functionality and methods be programmed in the native flex/flash class that you are launching papervision from?

    Hi John! Just wondering. I open your helicopter DAE on maya, and why do you have 3 groups for 3 mesh parts?
  • part 3 was most helpful.
    i hope it will solve my problems.
    thanks
  • what about the DOUBLE_CLICK MouseEvent in the redBox Blue box example? do you need to set the movieMaterial to doubleClickEnabled?

    I watched Part 5 which is what I've been stuck on for a while, so thanks, I've taken a good step forward. But what code can you put in the Blue button handler that tells redBox to play?

    Thanks John, Could it be possible that the new tutorials with published codes have notes to explain the code for every line. After all, that it is what the tutorials are all about. I will really appreciate it. Please , John. Thanks
