So I just bought The Essential Guide to 3D in Flash (isbn
978-1-4302-2541-6) and so far I am extremely disappointed.
Here is a list of problems I've had in my first 30 minutes with the
book:
1. Publisher claims source code is available for download at www.apress.com
but ISBN is "not found" and book is not listed
2. The very first piece of source code listed in the book has a typo
which caused a compile error (var view:View3D then later
addChild(_view);
3. That same first piece of code has a runtime error during
construction of the View3D (using the latest trunk of fp10 code line)
ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable _init is not defined.
at away3d.core.utils::Init/getBoolean()[C:\_projects\away3d
\fp10\Away3DLib\src\away3d\core\utils\Init.as:114]
For a book that was written by a primary developer on the project, I
expected more.
