[Papervision3D] PaperVision3D + APE experiment test

[Federico Calvo]

Hey Pablo! thanks!!

Next steps are:

- Figuring out a way to limit the size of the ShadowCaster plane. When you
see this on a big screen it slows the thing too much.
- Animate a movieclip under the moused over sphere which will display the
name of the node. (This might turn out being too annoying and I might have
to change it to onClick or something)
- Make Camera look at the clicked sphere center.
- Animate the Camera forward until it reaches the center of the sphere.
- Stop (in an animation) all sphere movement and remove all shpere listeners
once one is selected.
- Would be nice to be able to change the material to a Wireframe one when
you are inside so that it looks like you can see the 'geometry' when inside
and doubles as a nice background for the loaded content of that node.

As you can probably tell it will be a challenge to make this model "usable"
but I'll try it out.

Thanks for your interest!
Fede
