[Papervision3D] AS2 grouping objects

[quinrou .]

i tried this :

        var group:DisplayObject3D = new DisplayObject3D();
        scene.push( group );
        var plane:Plane = new Plane ( null , 600 , 600 );
        plane.container = group.container.createEmptyMovieClip("plane",0)
        var material :MovieAssetMaterial = new MovieAssetMaterial( "map" ,
true  );
        //scene.push( plane );

thinking that by using the DisplayObject3D conatiner i will be able to
create empty MCs and and group objects but nope it's not working. I really
don't know how to get that working.

any help welcome :)

thanks
seb
