Hi everyone!

I’m new at this, so forgive me if i’m asking questions already answered (i’m sure), butI’m having trouble with a mesh i have imported to my project.

I try to move it forward whenever the up key is pressed, but then only a part of the model moves. It’s a car, and the only thing that moves is the wheel rims.

This is what i do to load and to try and move the car:

private function addCar():void
  {
  Parsers.enableAllBundled();
  var parseador:AssetLoaderContext = new AssetLoaderContext();
  Loader3D.enableParser(Max3DSParser);
 
  meshLd = new Loader3D();
  meshLd.addEventListener(AssetEvent.ASSET_COMPLETE, meshLdHandler);
  meshLd.load( new URLRequest(“audi/a4_a.3DS”), parseador);
   
  }
 
  private function meshLdHandler(e:AssetEvent):void
  {
  if(e.asset.assetType == AssetType.MESH)
  {
  car = e.asset as Mesh;
  car.position = new Vector3D(50,0,5);
  car.geometry.scale(20)
 
 
  camCnt = new HoverController(cam,car);
  camCnt.distance = 100;
  camCnt.minTiltAngle = 0;
  camCnt.maxTiltAngle = 90;
  camCnt.panAngle = 0;//45
  camCnt.tiltAngle = 20;
 
  scene.addChild(car);
 
 
  }
private function kbHandler(e:KeyboardEvent):void
  {
  if(e.keyCode == Keyboard.UP)
  {
    car.moveForward(1);
 
  }
  }

I’ve looked for some example of how to accomplish this, but no luck so far. Hope you guys can help. Thank you!!!

I’m still trying to make this work, if someone knows a way pleaseeee post here!!!

Did you have a proper good look at the examples ?

The loaded model may consist of SEVERAL MESHES and your parsing listener is assigning them one by one to your Car variable. So your rims are loaded last and therefore are movable.

What you should do is to addChild those loaded meshes to some empty object and move that one instead.
