Hi

I am a Flash developer. I use Flash CS5.5 for development. What I want to achieve is importing of an .md2 format file developed in 3DS Max 2012 into Flash. I am using Papervision3D/Away3D libraries to do so. Now, when I compile my code, I get a log report saying that the .md2 file has been loaded. However I cannot see in the swf window. I am trying to find a solution for this but have been unable to thus far. Also once I import the file, I want it to animate and I want to be able to control the animation just as if it were a sequence of images.

Can anyone help me on this?

Regards
