It was a long time that followed the project Papervision3D , a library in Actionscript (2.0 and now 3.0) for manipulating and rendering 3D objects are spectacular. Inaugurated, so the category Papervision3D (soon also 3D), inserted in Flash CS3 . Papervision3D is also available for Actionscript 2.0, although I personally treat only the version for Actionscript 3.0.
The latest stable release of the library is 1.5.1, you can download from Google Code and specified with the filename Papervision3D_sourc_docs_examples_rev28.zip. The links are useful to familiarize yourself with Papervision:
- Papervision3D Home Page (with a spectacular demo after the logo)
- Papervision3D Google Code ( source and documentation )
- Papervision3D Blog
The development team is now working on a branch, a beta of what will be the 2.0 release. Council to start to develop from this version as it contains many new features and updates. Compared to 1.5.1, in fact, have been altered some classes and objects introduced several powerful. For now, meanwhile, see how to install the files in this branch 2.0, always viewable on Google Code: click here .
The code name for the pre-release 2.0 is Great White and the sources are located in the source section of Google Code (click on the browser):
How many other projects (especially open source) is also managed with SubVersion Papervision (see SVN) that allows you to keep track of releases and branches. Since the package has not yet been officially released you will not find in the ZIP version, and it is not convenient download file by file. To download council then install TortoiseSVN , a Windows application (32 and 64) that lets you synchronize local folders with Web addresses that support the protocol as in the case of SVN Google Code (altermine will need to restart the installation - at least on my Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit). This software will be useful at other times, see the many projects present in the SVN.
- Download and install Tortoise SVN
- Create a folder on your HD somewhere, or where you keep other classes for Flash (I use d: \ flashlib \) it contains the downloaded files.
- Click Right-click this folder and select "SVN Checkout"
- Enter "http://papervision3d.googlecode.com/svn/" in field "URL of depositary"
- Press OK and wait for the download (it may take a while ', there are currently about 35 Mbps)
- Once you see "Completed At revision: xxx" means that Papervision is ready for use (at time of writing we are at revision 532)
NOTE: The folder with downloading Papervision, of course, must be passed in the Class Path when you go to use it.

Tutorial on installing Papervision3D 2.0 ... using Tortoise SVN.
Good evening and thank you for the tutorial.
How do I install Papervision in Class Path?
Thanks again
@ Kaos: open the main movie from the File menu and select "Inpostazioni publication"
(CTRL+F12). In the window that opens select the tab "Flash". Third drop-down menu next to "ActionScript Version" you will find a button called "Settings".By clicking on the "Settings" button a window will open with a series of optional information, and below are the paths relative to your hard external classes used for including as Papervision3D.
To figure out which path you should consider adding the "naming" used by Papervision, normally
import org.papervision3d.events;. è una vera e propria cartella che puoi ritrovare nei file di Papervision. Quell 'orgyou see mentioned in the 'importis a real folder that you can find in the files of Papervision. in quella finestra, cliccando sul bottone [+] o sul “mirino”. So for example if you have installed in Papervision"D:\flashlib\papervision\org\", add"D:\flashlib\papervision\"in that window, by clicking on [+] or the "viewfinder".If you have used SVN Subversion, the path might be:
"D:\...\papervision3d-2.0\trunk\branches\GreatWhite\src"In practice, you must enter the entire path, except
"org". Please refer to the folder that you own Papervision.@ Kaos: see also write good OO code in Adobe Flash
Thank you!
I submit that the problem now seems even bigger.
And I feel all evening and then I realized that some classes have changed and I no longer use the tutorial that I found with the plane spinning at this address
Someone please can you tell me if there is documentation in Italian for Papervision or other 3D libraries that deal with the ActionScript3.
Just Saturday I went to a huge library in downtown Milan is expensive material I found a lot of other things but I have not found anything in Italian.
Thank you for your attention
yo prefiero use Cygwin with svn instalado y asi de hacer todo desde line commandos Tortoise SVN keeps Porque todo el tiempo a process activo including en cuando esta no use.
