Alphablending in loaded 3ds models Software: Away3D 4.x

_kihu, Jr. Member Posted: 23 November 2011 01:53 PM Total Posts: 43 Hi, I’m loading a 3ds model this way: `Loader3D.enableParser(Max3DSParser); loader3D = new Loader3D(); loader3D.addEventListener(LoaderEvent.RESOURCE_COMPLETE, onSuccess); loader3D.addEventListener(LoaderEvent.LOAD_ERROR, onResourceLoadingError); loader3D.load(new URLRequest(modelUrl));` The thing is, material is loaded automatically (I think), and I don’t know how to set alphablending = true. Without this, the transparent parts of the material (png) are rendered in black. Is there a way to change this? thanks:)

OBJECT3d.material = new BitmapMaterial((new modelTexture()).bitmapData); var mat = OBJECT3d.material; mat.alphaBlending = true; }` at least I think this would work maybe
_kihu, Jr. Member Posted: 28 November 2011 10:12 AM Total Posts: 43 [ # 2 ] So, is this officially the proper way to load models to away3d apps, using AssetLibrary? Is there a way to omit the requirement for the object name, perhaps define the name in code after it’s loaded?
