Yes, please,
send me your bugs, comments, whishes etc etc...

it still have some bug (shadow render,bump)
It can be trickky to use it especially if the maker doesn't provide any tuts/info :) just think, thats it's in scale of the model. if the results looks weird or too much, set much lower values.

2 known issues that will be fixed for next update (hopefully):
if no bump is rendered at all, while you have a bumpmap set:
an internal instance pointer issue (say a nasty bug) prevents access to the right map. a dirty hack is to select "render normalmap", add the bump map from this panel, close window. the pointer is ok from there.

in fast render mode, adding bump generates artefact if only one light is in scene
dirty fix: add an extra light, place it else where

Even if the version says 1.035, it's actually more beta than a robust release.
Among other stuffs, Prefab3D is on my dayly todo list :))
Keep in mind it's not just interface/flash programming using exiting tools... many stuffs in there ask quite a lot of time/attention to be developped en finally be implemented. I do all I can to make it better.

AS3Exporter
AS3Exporter is already a long time out, and I have never heard about problems with it..
(doesn't mean there are no problems)

Just to make sure:
set trace in construction to make sure you do import the output properly

2 ways to use the outputed classes:

1/
import myoutputs.myClass;
[..]
view.scene.addChild(new myClass() ); // --> if you get the trace but see nothing, make sure your camera actually looks at it!
[..]
view.render();


using the class as data holder, for instance
an avatar where all accessories were outputed in one class

2/
import myoutputs.myClass;
[..]

var holder:myClass = new myClass();

var body:Mesh = holder.meshes[0];
var hair:Mesh = holder.meshes[2];
var bag:Mesh = holder.meshes[6];

view.scene.addChild(hair:Mesh);
view.scene.addChild(body);
view.scene.addChild(bag:Mesh);

[..]
view.render();

Let me know how it goes...

Hi there,
I'm diving into first release of prefab, and exported a model as as3.
But I just can't load it into my scene, and no errors are thrown.

As even if the prefab is a fantastic tools, it still have some bug
(shadow render,bump), I wanted to know if you can load it or
if I have to report that bug to Fabrice.

Bach.zip in the file section.

Thanks.
