In nov 2008, Papervision 3D can be downloaded from the SVN repository (read the Revision control system tutorial)
The subversion URL can change, e.g.
- http://papervision3d.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/as3/trunk/ (nov 2008)
- http://papervision3d.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ (before)
So create a new directory somewhere. On windows you can use a GUI client like like, under linux go to the new directory and type:
subversion checkout http://papervision3d.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/as3/trunk/
You then should have a directory "trunk" with a sub-directory structure like this:
bin build docs examples src .svn
- CS3 setup
- CS3 must be able to find the this library. Read Flash using ActionScript libraries tutorial if you want learn more about this.
- Open the File->Publish Settings - Flash tab
- Then click on the Settings ... button next to the ActionScript version.
- Click on the "target" "Browse to Path" icon and select the "src" directory of the Papervison library
E.g. I keep the subversion tree on my linux machine and copy/rename the trunk directory to my laptop. So I entereded this:
c:\lib\pv3d\src
The only thing that matters is that Flash can find the contents of the "src" directory
