Adobe Flash or After Effects: How to make a piece of virtual paper blow away?

About a month ago I saw a portfolio website in Flash that featured a stack of cards, and each time you clicked on it, they sort of blew all over the place, thus exposing the backs as videos and pictures. Although I could easily take a bunch of 3D planes and tween them to turn and flip, these cards actually seemed to 'bend'. How is this...

Putting a MovieMaterial behind a DAE model in Papervision3D

how to combine a texture on a cylinder in papervision3d ?

I would like to combine bitmaps to one texture and apply it to a cylindric primitive. The cylinder will be rotating or better: the texture should moving along the cylindric-surface and therefor you should see only one (up to 3 textures at the same time). For better understanding: it's my intention to create somehow a poster-pillow with a...

children don't rotate along with Camera3D's local axis when added with addChild?

When I add a Cube to my Camera3D object with "addChild()", it doesn't rotate along with the camera when I modify the camera's "localRotationX", "localRotationY", ""localRotationZ" properties. The cube will, however, rotate along with other DisplayObject3D objects. Are Camera3D objects a special case? ...
