[away3d] collada loading problem

[silke]

Hi,

I am trying to load a simple collada file but am getting error
messages:

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null
object reference.

I am loading it with this code:

var loader:Loader3D = Collada.load("dae/plane.dae");
loader.addOnSuccess(_onLoaderSuccess);
_scene.addChild(loader);

Now, the collada file works fine with papervision, so it does not seem
corrupt or anything...

Any ideas?

Thanks,
