Re: Simple Cube w/Texture

Thanks Javier – that explains a lot more.  However, I tried your code out, and while I didn’t get any errors, I didn’t see any cube either (whereas I did when I made an added a simple plane in the same file).  The .jpg (my file is city.jpg, and I changed that in your code) is in the same folder location as the host HTML and .swf.  I get this message:

 

“INFO: BitmapFileMaterial: Loading bitmap from city.jpg”

 

Here is all my code (a few things are irrelevant since I was messing around with some other things):

 

package

{

            import flash.display.Bitmap;

            import flash.display.BitmapData;

            import flash.display.Sprite;

            import flash.events.Event;

            import flash.events.MouseEvent;

            import org.papervision3d.core.proto.MaterialObject3D;

            import org.papervision3d.materials.BitmapFileMaterial;

            import org.papervision3d.materials.BitmapMaterial;

            import org.papervision3d.materials.utils.MaterialsList;

            import org.papervision3d.materials.WireframeMaterial;

            import org.papervision3d.view.Viewport3D;

            import org.papervision3d.scenes.Scene3D;

            import org.papervision3d.cameras.Camera3D;

            import org.papervision3d.materials.ColorMaterial;

            import org.papervision3d.render.BasicRenderEngine;

 

            public class MyPV3DTest extends Sprite

            {

                       

                        private var viewport: Viewport3D;

                        private var scene: Scene3D;

                        private var camera: Camera3D;

                        private var material:MaterialObject3D;

                        private var materials:MaterialsList;

                        private var primitive:Cube

                        private var renderer: BasicRenderEngine;

                       

                        public function MyPV3DTest ():void

                        {

                                    //viewport = new Viewport3D(w, h, scaleToStage, interactive);

                                    viewport = new Viewport3D(550, 400, false, true);

                                    addChild(viewport);

 

                                    //instantiates a Scene3D instance

                                    scene = new Scene3D();

 

                                    //instantiates a Camera3D instance

                                    camera = new Camera3D();

 

                                    //renderer draws the scene to the stage

                                    renderer = new BasicRenderEngine();

 

                                    var wireframeMaterial:WireframeMaterial = new WireframeMaterial(0x333333);

                                    wireframeMaterial.doubleSided = true;

 

                                    var bitmapFileMaterial:BitmapFileMaterial = new BitmapFileMaterial("city.jpg");

                                    bitmapFileMaterial.doubleSided = true;

           

                                     var materialsList:MaterialsList = new MaterialsList();

                                     materialsList.addMaterial(wireframeMaterial, "front");

                                     materialsList.addMaterial(wireframeMaterial, "back");

                                     materialsList.addMaterial(bitmapFileMaterial, "left");

                                     materialsList.addMaterial(wireframeMaterial, "right");

                                     materialsList.addMaterial(wireframeMaterial, "top");

                                     materialsList.addMaterial(wireframeMaterial, "bottom");

 

                                     var cube:Cube = new Cube(materialsList, 200, 200, 200, 3, 3, 3);

                                    scene.addChild(cube);

                        }

            }

}

Try this out instead, it seems that you are using a cube and aren't loading the material list correctly.

            wireframeMaterial = new WireframeMaterial(0x333333);
            wireframeMaterial.doubleSided = true;
            ///
            //BitmapFileMaterial, doubleSided draws the color on both sides of the geometry normals
            bitmapFileMaterial = new BitmapFileMaterial("AJ.png");
            bitmapFileMaterial.doubleSided = true;
            ///
            var materialsList:MaterialsList = new MaterialsList();
            materialsList.addMaterial(wireframeMaterial, "front");
            materialsList.addMaterial(wireframeMaterial, "back");
            materialsList.addMaterial(bitmapFileMaterial, "left");
            materialsList.addMaterial(wireframeMaterial, "right");
            materialsList.addMaterial(wireframeMaterial, "top");
            materialsList.addMaterial(wireframeMaterial, "bottom");
            ///
            //cube = new Cube(MaterialList applied to object, width, depth, height, wSegments, dSegments, hSegments);
            cube = new Cube(materialsList, 200, 200, 200, 3, 3, 3);
            scene.addChild(cube);

That's a quick example that loads a bitmap on a side of the cube, and renders a wireframe material on the other sides...

Hope it helps =)
