Hey charglerode
once the object and texture has loaded, just do this:
var myObject:Object3D = myLoader.handle
var myMaterialLibrary:MaterialLibrary = myObject.materialLibrary
var myMaterialData:MaterialData =
myMaterialLibrary.getMaterial("myMaterial");
var myBitmapMaterial:BitmapMaterial = myMaterialData.material as
BitmapMaterial;
myMaterialData.material = new
WhiteShadingBitmapMaterial(myBitmapMaterial.bitmap);
make sure the argument in the getMaterial() method is the name of the
material you want to change in your obj file.
cheers!
