Papervision For Beginners: Loading Complex Models
Papervision tutorials for beginners are continuing. In this article you will learn how to modify the “Creating Objects” project again, this time to load a Collada Model file.
Loading Collada files is the fastest and easiest way in Papervision 3d to get a complex model into your scene. By changing a few lines in your code, you can quickly load a model of a cow and make it spin!
You’ll need to use the org.papervision3d.objects. DisplayObject3D package to store our model in. This will store the geometry, materials and everything like the position and rotation. We’ll also need the Collada file parser. The whole process is rather simple and understandable.
