When there is movement the smoothing seems like it’s off then pops on.

Another optimization that is as obvious as it is effective is to set stage.quality=”LOW” . It dramatically increases performance.

I ran into that same problem Use the material.rect property to define the area of your moviecip/Sprite that you want used as a texture. Then you can have a scrolling masked text.

That’s a most excellent display of Papervision3D. And it’s all the more beautiful considering you shown how to use technology for the benefit of the user and not simply for the benefit of the programmer.

I would suggest however one thing. Instead of making those member functions public, I would perhaps think first in creating a new public method and call the private method from within. At the surface there may seem to not exist much of a difference, but you gain the ability to clearly label any user made changes to the class like for instance prepend “jiaco_” to the methods you create: This alone is, from where I stand, the biggest advantage. I like consistency and to have every monkey on it’s branch But also you don’t break the class encapsulation rules (you do in fact, but not directly. The class retains the rules, you are just circumventing them in order to handle a bug) and you don’t risk potential problems with unintended polymorphism behavior that can at best originate a compile-time error (lack of the override keyword) and at worst silently bug the library.

I’m Running into an issue with my PV3D app. in which I’m adding a interactivMovieMaterial Plane to a sphere 3d object (sphere.addChild(Plane)). The movie Material that I’ve added has a dynamic text field with a scroll bar that takes the height of the dynamic text flied and uses it for the scroll amount. The problem comes when I try to scroll - its as if the scroll bar moves the entire Plane - so instead of the text moving the mask inside the movie clip and or the Plane itself moves.

There was also a point in which it also stretched the movieclip as I scrolled until I used the autoResize = false function. now it stays the same size but wont sit still.

Have you or anyone else run into the same dilemma, working with nested 3dobjects with interactiveMovieMaterials attached to them, and if so how was it remedied?

– im encountering a serious memory leak when using pv3d (which i believe to be connected to a bad dispose implementation, as you described in your fifth point).

i was wondering if you might be able to post your mod or point out the method+class that needs be hit to destroy a material effectively
