I've decided to start working with Papervision 3D,
I've followed all the instructions in the Getting Started FAQ:
http://wiki.papervision3d.org/index.php?title=Getting_Started_FAQ

Thing is...
I keep getting all kinds of errors like:

1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: MovieScene3D.
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Plane.
1180: Call to a possibly undefined method MovieScene3D.
1180: Call to a possibly undefined method Plane.
1172: Definition org.papervision3d.objects:Plane could not be found.
1172: Definition org.papervision3d.scenes:MovieScene3D could not be found.


How come the example given to beginners generates errors?

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

If you have installed papervision using tortoisesvn
Maybe you might need to check whether in your
Edit -> Preferences -> Actionscript -> Actionscript 3.0 settings and see whether you have put the correct folder paths for the papervision class library. Without them all papervision functions and calls to that would go undefined and throw errors.
Check the papervision site or google up for putting the right path.
Also I would say that you go up with papervision 2. There are couple of changes from version 1. Several command, objects, functions have been deprecated and newer, better ones added. However help for them is quite scarce.

I've already set up the class path as instructed in the FAQ.
I'm still getting these errors.

Notice that I'm getting specific errors on specific methods,
I'm not getting errors on all the methods, hence the class is set up correctly,
but there's a local problem with these methods.
