Hi,
I didn't want to create a new topic as I encounter the same
problem...
The only thing is I have some errors.
I am trying to compile the sample code given in the tutorial, but
my
compiler (either Flash CS4 IDE or FlashDevelop with Flex SDK) keep
telling me that the "elevation" variable is undefined or (with
Hamak's
above code) "Error: Can't cast to bitmap: roadcolor"...
Here is a part of "my" code.. I think the problem is in the Embed
part, and I'm quite noob at Bitmap(Data) in ActionScript...
[Embed(source = '../elevate2.jpg')] private var
RoadColor:Class;
private var roadcolor:Bitmap = new RoadColor();
[Embed(source = '../elevate3.jpg')] private var
EleVation:Class;
private var elevation:Bitmap = new EleVation();
// ------------------ MAIN FUNCTION
--------------------
public function Main():void {
init3D();
build();
//build2();
//init();
}
// ---------- ELEVATION & MOUNTAIN GENERATION
-----------
private function imageFromLib
(source_ID:String):BitmapData {
var classRef:Class =
getDefinitionByName(source_ID) as Class;
return new classRef(classRef.width,
classRef.height);
}
private function build():void {
var source_elevation:BitmapData =
imageFromLib("elevation");
var mat:IMaterial = new
BitmapMaterial(imageFromLib("roadcolor") ,
{smooth:true});
var elevate:Elevation = new
Elevation();
extrude = new SkinExtrude
(elevate.generate(source_elevation, "r",
5, 5, 50, 50, 4), {material:mat, recenter:true, closepath:false,
coverall:true, subdivision:1, bothsides:false, flip:true});
extrude.rotationX = 90;
this.scene.addChild(extrude);
}
private function build2():void {
var mat:BitmapMaterial = new BitmapMaterial
(Cast.bitmap("roadcolor") , {smooth:true});
var elevate:Elevation = new Elevation();
extrude = new SkinExtrude(elevate.generate
(Cast.bitmap("elevation"), "r", 5, 5, 50,50, 4), {material:mat,
recenter:true, closepath:false, coverall:true,subdivision:1,
bothsides:false, flip:true});
view.scene.addChild(extrude);
//extrude.rotationX = 90;
plane = new Cube( { depth:10, width:600,
height:1000, y:50, x:10,
z:10 } );
//view.scene.addChild(plane);
var m:BitmapMaterial = new BitmapMaterial
(Cast.bitmap("elevation"),
{ smooth:true, precision:1 } );
plane.material = m;
}
Thanks for helping
-------------------------------------------------
EDIT : I now know that the problem is that elevation is not a
BitmapData... I'm sorry but I really don't know how to correct that
problem, I can't just change Bitmap into BitmapData... Can anyone
explain/correct/give me a good tutorial on that ? I tried reading
documentations on various classes but I appear to be lost...
