I don't understand how these events work... what happens when an image
loads really fast surely this won't work?
Why is the materials BitmapData accessed by bitmap rather than
bitmapData?
would setting up an array of BitmapData's with a colorMatrixFilter be
the best way to adjust the brightness ( or similar + blur... +
purpleness ) to replicate a feeling of distance and swap out based on
Z be a good approach, I have swapped out bitmaps way back in pv3d as2
and also used it for rollover buttons states, although quite like to
apply a heightmap in these cases... not yet researched that yet in
away planes.
How many levels are people using with this swap out approach?
With haXe I was thinking of extending BitmapFileMaterial to
BitmapFileMaterialPiecewiseBitmapData
so you could define
bitmapFileMaterialPiecewiseBitmapData.map
or define the array directly
bitmapFileMaterialPiecewiseBitmapData
.BitmapDatas
( createArrayBitmapData
( bitmapFileMaterialPiecewiseBitmapData.bitmap ) );
and use it something like
bitmapFileMaterialPiecewiseBitmapData.setEasyZ( camera, plane, min,
max );
or
bitmapFileMaterialPiecewiseBitmapData.z = 3;
although in someways its easier to do it directly on the Plane rather
than Material as I am more likely to be working with them in my render
loop. Anyway thinking it might be worth having something in the main
away3dlite branch if there is not some approach to this already, like
a ListBitmapMaterial.

worked, thanks again!;)
