For my first attemps in Papervision3D development, i focused on Collada import.
One of the great features of Papervision is the Collada import capabilities (through .dae scene files).
As i got a body export from Cinema4D (which does not need extra plugin to export), i wondered how could i import this scene into papervision.
So i tried some online tutorials which used the ASCollada class to import dae files, but i still had a compilation error.
After few more searches i found an article where the native DAE parser from papervision package was used.
And finally i managed in importing my Cinema4D .dae file, so here is the result :
In this example you'll find the following features :
DAE file import (from Cinema4D Collada export)
FlatShade material
Composite Material
The sources can be donwloaded here (including papervision package)

Maybe you know Shazam wich allows mobiles & iPhones owner to recognize a music from a 10 seconds recorded sample ?
So have a look to : http://www.shazam.com/
How does it works :
You are hearing a song you like but you don't know who is the artist...
Record a sample to your mobile/iPhone, and thanks to its huge database this tool is capable of finding the entire music informations.
But Shazam made me think of another old web flash application i saw a long time ago .
This funny small app asks you to tap the music rythm you are thinking of, and it discovers it very fast.
It is called : Song Tapper
Just click the link and test it :)

If you have already seen the Adobe components limits, SamyStudio created an great set of AS3 components called "myLib" which include the following components :
Button
CheckBox
ComboBox
Label
List
MouseScroll
PanoramaScroll
RadioButton
ScrollBar
ScrollPane
Slider
TextArea
TextInput
MediaPlayer.
Once installed, these compenents appear in the components panel.
Personnaly my favourite is the wonderful combobox which is a pain to code.
The set comes with a whole API documentation, i guess this was a hard work to do so thanks a lot SamyStudio, great job !

Lately i had time to look forward in AS3 scripting, and i focused on 2D physics API like APE or Flash2DBox.
And after few searches i found the google keywords that lead to interesting links, i think they are worth to share :
- Adrian Parr's blog :
http://www.adrianparr.com/?p=83
this page is amazing, gathering many libraires as 2D/3D physics engine, tweening, frameworks, various APIS like Facebook, ....
- Free Flash scripts
http://www.free-flash-scripts.com/
Another pool of as3 classes and API where you can find system files classes such as : png/jpeg encoder, zip class, pdf exporter, ......
With these 2 links, i guess everyone will find something intersting.
