There have been requests to put the Blender to ActionScript exporter on Google Code.
I’ve created this page: http://code.google.com/p/blender-as-exporter/
If you want to make any contributions to make the plugin better then give me a shout!
Packt Publishing sent me book for review. So here we go …

Finally there is a book about the most popular 3D engine for Flash, Papervision3D. With a lot of information scattered about on the internet there is a huge need for something coherent. This [...]
There are a lot of people who use Blender and the Blender to ActionScript exporter. However, there are a lot of people who use Maya, SketchUp, DAZ Studio or any other 3D program who aren’t able to export to ActionScript classes. Some people came to me with the question “why don’t you create a COLLADA [...]
Yesterday I helped my friend Tudor with a problem. When we solved it he got excited and told me to blog about it. Whatever Tudor says has to be done so here we go :-).
He was using the Ribbon3D class which is based on Papervision3D. Instead of using a color material he wanted to use [...]
Mike Lively, who’s writing a book about Papervision3D, has released a new Papervision3D XML exporter for Blender. He has used my Blender to ActionScript exporter script as a base for his script.
Another useful exporter for Blender! Go checkit out:

The export script for Blender has been updated. It is now compatible with the latest versions of Papervision3D (2.0) and Away3D (2.1.0).
It also contains a bugfix that solves an annoying problem with the “choose engine” dropdown menu.
Download the script here.
This script enables you to export Blender objects to ActionScript 3.0 objects. This way you no longer have to load external (Collada) files. Supported 3D engines are:
Away3D
Papervision3D (version 1.7 & 2.0)
Sandy 3.0 & 3.1
Alternativa3D
Flash & Flash Developer’s Magazine offers a free PDF version of the issue that contains the “Blender to Flash workflow” that was [...]
This post is all about UV coordinates and how to use them in Sandy 3.0, although the theory applies to other engines like Papervision3D too. There’s a little bit of theory involved and some hands-on coding.
About UV coordinates
In simple words: UV coordinates are 2D coordinates that are mapped onto a 3D model. UV coordinates [...]
My Papervision3D tutorials were too Flex-specific so I made some changes to them. I got lots of comments from Flash developers who were having trouble with the code, so time was nigh for some updates! I also changed the repository URL to point to the new location on Google Code. Enjoy!
Papervision3D tutorial from the ground [...]
This excellent tool just emerged. With this piece of software you’re able to convert your 3DS Max model to an AS3 class & plug it into Sandy 3.0, Papervision 1.5 and Away3D.
Go check it out!
