[Papervision3D] Issues with Maya DAE file

[John Brookes]

That dae file doesn't have a face assigned as "color_red".

In maya.
create a cube
select a face
assign a new material to that face eg lambert.

If you want to rename the material, its the shadingEngine name.
eg lambert1SG
export.

Then in pV (assuming you didnt rename it)

daeModel.replaceMaterialByName("lambert1SG", new colorMaterial());
