Papervision 3D Programming Tutorial: Animated Textures

A Flex / Actionscript development tutorial that shows you how to  display a movie as an animated texture on a Papervision 3D model. Basically it uses Flex’s ability to embed and play a video file.  Currently Flex does not have the ability to embed FLV files (which is a native Flash video format). However, there are a number of tools that can convert video files directly to SWF files, which Flex can embed. The author used the ImTOO FLV Converter  for his demo. The article is supplemented with the online demo and ActionScript source code.
