Here is the code i am using...
public function initObjects():void
{
//how fast the object is moving
this.speed = 0.0025;
loader2 = Collada.load(meshes +
"20_cat_smooth_bake_channel.dae",
{ material:new BitmapFileMaterial(textures + "20_cat.png"), scaling:
1.00 } );
loader = Collada.load(meshes +
"20_cat_smooth_bake_channel.dae",
{ material:new BitmapFileMaterial(textures + "20_cat.png"), scaling:
1.00 } );
loader2.addOnSuccess(onLoaderSuccess2);
loader.addOnSuccess(onLoaderSuccess);
this.view.scene.addChild(loader);
this.view.scene.addChild(loader2);
}
private function onLoaderSuccess(event:LoaderEvent):void
{
this.Model = event.loader.handle as ObjectContainer3D;
//same path
var aPath:Array =
[
new Number3D(-1000, 0, -1000),
new Number3D(0, 200, 0),
new Number3D(1000, 400, 1000),
new Number3D( 3000, 600, 4000),
new Number3D( 6000, 800, 9000),
new Number3D(6000, 3000, 16000)
]
this.path = new Path(aPath);
this.pathAnimator = new PathAnimator(this.path,
this.Model,
animInit); //animInit is a constant object
}
private function onLoaderSuccess2(event:LoaderEvent):void
{
this.Model2 = event.loader.handle as ObjectContainer3D;
var aPath:Array =
[
new Number3D(-1000, 0, -1000),
new Number3D(0, 200, 0),
new Number3D(1000, 400, 1000),
new Number3D( 3000, 600, 4000),
new Number3D( 6000, 800, 9000),
new Number3D(6000, 3000, 16000)
];
this.path2 = new Path(aPath);
this.pathAnimator2 = new PathAnimator(this.path2,
this.Model2,
animInit);
}
A partial stack trace for the error I am getting is:
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
