Hi,
I'm new to Away3D and I've downloaded Away 3.6, the Flex 3.6 examples,
as well as the working files for the Friends of Ed book 'The Essential
Guide to 3D in Flash.' Both of the example class collections are
almost unusable because of the many errors from Number3D to Vector3D
and MatrixAway3D to Matrix3D. The book was written for Away3D 3.5. The
Flex class examples for 3.6 seem like they should work with 3.6 but
don't because of the changes (see image)

Could someone please advise on how to get this straight? It has really
held back my diving into this exciting Flash 3D engine. Thank you!
Here's a more specific example from the book:

unrelated type away3d.core.base:Vertex. line 26

p2.x = (Math.random()-0.5) * 200;
p2.y = (Math.random()-0.5) * 200;

seg = new LineSegment();
*error* seg.start = p1;
*error* seg.end = p2;
_view.scene.addChild(seg);
*error* p1.clone(p2);
}
}
}
