A newbie's question, plz help!! - Macromedia Director 3D

[roger1980boy]

i made my scene within Maya and exported it to director. now i want to control
my camera movement . i used the following codes, however, doesn't work. i
wonder what's wrong..... i guess one possiblity is my definition to the camera
has been incorrect.....

in the object inspector. my camera is defined both under the 'member'
\+model"camera_see"\ and 'camera' \+camera("DefaultView")\ . i used the
following code.

-----------

property pLeftArrow, pRightArrow, pUpArrow, pDownArrow
property p3Dmember
property pSprite
property pCamera
property camSphereRes
property pCameraSphere


on beginSprite me

--initiate the properties
p3Dmember = sprite (me.spriteNum).member
pSprite = sprite(me.spriteNum)
pCamera = pSprite.camera


pLeftArrow = false
pRightArrow = false
pUpArrow = false
pDownArrow = false


on keyDown
case the keycode of
123: pLeftArrow = true
124: pRightArrow = true
125:pDownArrow = true
126:pUpArrow = true
end case

end

on keyUp
pLeftArrow = false
pRightArrow = false
pDownArrow = false
pUpArrow = false

end

on controlCamera me
if pLeftArrow then pCamera.rotate(0,-1,0)
if pRightArrow then pCamera.rotate(0,1,0)
if pDownArrow then pCamera.translate(0,0,3)
if pUpArrow then pCamera.translate(0,0,-3)
end

----
i don't know if sprite(me,spriteNum) works fine here, coz my sprite name is
"3dworld" ...... ha , i am a newbie here.....

to controll the camera it is better to use "keypressed" than "on keydown"

property pWorld
property pMember
property pCamera
...

vec00=vector(0,0,0)

if keypressed(123) then vec01=vector(0,-1,0)
if keypressed(124) then vec02=vector(0,1,0)
if keypressed(125) then vec03=vector(0,0,3)
if keypressed(126) then vec04=vector(0,0,-3)

transvec=vec00+vec01+vec02
rotvec=vec00+vec03+vec04

pCamera.rotate(rotvec)
pCamera.translate(transvec)
