[Papervision3D] Update vertex-coordinates for shading

[Clox]

Thanks Ralph, though it seems that doesn't help either.
Even if setting geometry.ready to true after im done with the
vertex-movement the shading still wont update.

I would like this:

var v0=new Vertex3D(0,0,0);
var v1=new Vertex3D(50,0,50);
var v2=new Vertex3D(0,50,0);
face=new Triangle3D(mesh,[v0, v1, v2]);

to have the same effect on the shading as this:

var v0=new Vertex3D(0,0,0);
var v1=new Vertex3D(50,0,0);
var v2=new Vertex3D(0,50,0);
face=new Triangle3D(mesh,[v0, v1, v2]);
v1.z=50;

Thanks for helping =)
