Because of possibility to create 3d games in flash with Papervision3d is not so far. This would be the time that a web/game-developper like me must start to do this. Back to the last month, I started to developed games and application in AS3 and leaved the old friend AS2 behind. I found some problems with depth manager of papervision which is needed to modify a little as well as its performance is quite limited. May be, I need to learn more about it, by the way, I was completely started with AS3.

Due to my current work, figure 3D models from Maya to use in flash game has some problems; size, face, rotation, texture etc..
I created a program from flash to test/view these models as well as include a little tuning with their size, rotation at the same environment of the game before placing them.

This program only* supports the file type *.dae collada with triangular faces.
And the program is BETA, I am waiting to the complete of AS3 AIR-Application to fix the browse and save method in this program. Now, you can type the absolute path to test your dae model and only browse them in the same directory. version 1.0 is completed.

Test the application here:
