Papervision 3D Line Object


After hearing some talk on the list, I thought it might be fun to create an actual Line3D object for Papervision.

Check it out here!

This demo consists of 3 seperate lines objects “growing” with simple Brownian motion.  Each line is slighty different in size – and all three have perspective scaling enabled.

Let me know how many lines you get before it starts to be a real problem! (above 50ms?)

    I get to around 4000 lines when its consistently above 50 ms.

  2. I get around 3000 lines at max zoom distance. However, its heavily dependant on distance, as at min distance it drops off to 110 ms with the same number of lines.

  3. very cool! got up to 6500 lines before it began to get choppy

  4. Hey Andy thanks again for the help!

    Here’s my example using your great class.

    Hi Andy,
    Really nice experiment and smooth for a long time! (around 6000 lines)

    Can you post something about the Brownian motion algorithm ?

    Thank you!

    Hi Andy,

    Lines seems to be broken now when I use it with PV3D v2.0 the effects branch. It is giving me a 1020: Method marked override must override another method.

  8. This lines code won’t work with 2.0 – however, if you check the source in 2.0, you will notice it has been redone and is already built in.

    Aha, cool. I glanced in the objects directory but didn’t see it, I will look harder :-)

    Thanks for all your swell work on this btw!

  10. hi, this class can not work in the new PV3D, for the class Vertex3D had been changed.

  11. @Kono – Lines3D is now built into great white, so you don’t need to try to make this version work with it – it is a core class. You can find the files in core.geom. :)

    Hi guys,
    I am new for flash and pv3d.
    Can anyone tell me how to connect source file(.as files) to flash(fla)?
    thanks a lot.

  25. Andy,

    I have pv3d great white version. was this written for a previous release? Because im getting errors left and right, not sure why. Could you help me out?
