Take a look at http://away3d.com/livedocs/3.6.0_lib/away3d/materials/CompositeMaterial.html
You might use a high-resolution SWF for the road, and low-resolution things elsewhere. That would help some. However, you might also consider different ways of storing / rendering your world. The method you have chosen will work, technically, but will usually be either low-resolution or slow, and usually both. And it's going to be extra heavy on memory usage, because objects cannot be ignored (only faces). If you have multiple objects, each of which covers only the area it needs to, and is designed to render at high-quality for its own little chunk of the world, then you may be able to get better performance with better quality and lower memory usage. You could then also consider using the QuadrantRenderer or other renderers that fit your scenario. This may improve with the "Molehill" branch, whenever that comes out, but even then the other methods used elsewhere on the web will improve as well, so this method you're currently using may still be slower in comparison. (Note that I say this not completely understanding the BSP-tree based rendering system in Away3D 3.6, so I could be off about the details. But the concepts are probably still relevant, if not exact.) - Bibek On Nov 9, 8:33 am, jonny <[email protected]> wrote: > Just another thing, want to make sure im explaining my self > correctly :) > The view i am creating is something like this > one:http://i.ytimg.com/vi/FxE3FzfPuSM/0.jpg > > So the road you see ahead is the plane with the bitmap applied to it. > > Any suggestions? > > On Nov 9, 2:26 pm, jonny <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > > > > > Sorry I should have mentioned this - its a first person game.
