Hey ThePhenom sorry to have kept you waiting on this one - had a busy week gone!
essentially the type of object the parse method returns depends on what you are doing with the parser. If you have instructed it to autoload textures (something that will be done automatically on collada and 3ds files, the parse method will return an Object3DLoader object. Similarly, if you have specified the chunk timeout value to be small on the collada loader (this is the minimum time value allows for parsing a file in any particular frame event), the parse function will return an Object3DLoader object. If neither of these are the case, the parse method will return an object pertaining to the type of the parser - collada and 3ds will always return an ObjectContainer3D. The reason why the return value is cast this way is that Object3DLoader extends ObjectContainer3D. So if you have either of the above scenarios and want to track progress using onProgress or onSuccess listeners, you can cast the returned ObjectContainer3D to Object3DLoader and proceed as normal. hope that makes sense!
