[away3d] New article: Cube6 Material creator

[Darcey Lloyd]

Hi all,

New article and utility posted, full source and example are included:

*Away3DLite - Cube6 - Material generator*
Create a cube6 material from single images, options are:

   1. Specify each side of the cubes materials individually or even leave
   some out
   2. Transparency
   3. Fill colour (for when transparency is disabled)
   4. Flip back face (good for those 180 deg turns / twists)
   5. Custom rotation for each individual face in degrees

So you can just simply:

// Create our cube 6 material and display it
cube6Material = new Cube6Material(
new frontImage(),
new backImage(),
new leftImage(),
new rightImage(),
new topImage(),
new bottomImage(),
true,0x003366
);




// Create a cube
cube = new Cube6();
cube.width = (new frontImage() as Bitmap).width;
cube.height = (new frontImage() as Bitmap).height;
cube.depth = (new frontImage() as Bitmap).width;
cube.material = new BitmapMaterial( cube6Material.getBitmapData() );
away3DLiteScene.scene.addChild(cube);
