[SOLVED] Using Unigine setWorldTransform to set a camera position and rotation

[Paul.Brodin]

Hi there

Still quite new to Unigine, but making some progress in using a c# application to programatically build some worlds.

 

Ive managed to use the PlayerDummy to create some static camera locations, but i cant figure out what the syntax is to set the direction of the camera (i can position it, but it just looks straight down)

 

I am guessing that i need to rotate the matrix passed into the setWorldTransform function, but cant figure it out, ive found some c++ samples but still cant get it figured out.

 

i have this

 

myCam.setWorldTransform(MathLib.translate(new Vec3(dx, dy, dz + dHgt)));

 

To set the location.

 

Anyone help with what is next?

Hey Paul,

 

You can use setTo (https://developer.unigine.com/en/docs/1.0/scripting/core/math.matrix#setTo_variable_variable_vec3) function to set camera position as well as direction.

 

Something like that:

Vec3 position = new Vec3(10, 10, 10);
Vec3 eye_point = new Vec3(0, 0, 0);
Vec3 up = new Vec3(0, 0, 1);

myCam.setWorldTransform(MathLib.setTo(position, eye_point, up));

Brill - thats just what i was missing - the setTo function is part of the MathLib !
