Also, you may want to look at switching to a different library like Away3D or Alternativa3d. Papervision is no longer being developed and as far as I know, because of that, there are no plans to make it compatible with the new 3d APIs coming in the Flash player this summer which will allow for hardware rendering and huge jumps in performance.

Subject: Re: [Papervision3D] Papervision and reducing DAE filesize
Thanks for the tips everyone.
We've tried the export scripts posted on our DAE files (and also 3ds files) and have found that no geometry information is exported into the AS3 file (no numerical values are present). It seems to work with some objects (classic teapot for example) but not ours. Any idea why this may be the case?
We also tried using 3ds files directly in lieu of DAE files due to the difference in file size (binary file versus verbose text) and the initial constructor object causes an error as it does not know what the member _textureExtensionReplacements is. It's not even close to be ale to load this.
Regards,
Colin

Like Jason pointed out with Blender, there is an export script for 3ds to give you an AS3 file that represents your model like a DAE object would after parsing. This obviously removes unwanted bloat you get with an XML file.
Just do a search for paper vision AS3 3d studio script and you should be able to find it

Post by DrColinLI have noticed that the DAE files contain a lot of data and I
strongly suspect not all of it may be required. Our scene in
Papervision does not use any lighting (faked with texturing) and, for
example, there appears to be lighting information in the DAE file.
Does anyone have any experience or tips on what you can ditch from a DAE file safely?
Obviously being able to remove the large geometry lists of X,Y,Z values would be of interest.
The files were exported from 3DStudioMax 2009.

Colin
