Move Mesh with Camera

[zincman320]

I have this camera:

var camera = new BABYLON.ArcRotateCamera("ArcRotateCamera", Math.PI / 2, Math.PI / 3, 410, new BABYLON.Vector3(0, 0, 0), scene);camera.lowerRadiusLimit = 70;camera.upperRadiusLimit = 500;

And I have this mesh:

var testing = BABYLON.Mesh.CreatePlane("testing", 100, scene);testing.rotation = new BABYLON.Vector3(Math.PI / 2, Math.PI, 0);testing.position.y = -20;testing.parent = camera;

And I want the mesh to move with the camera when I call the following code:

$('#topBorder').on('mouseenter', function() {    this.iid = setInterval(function() {    scene.activeCamera.target.z -= speed;    }, interval);}).on('mouseleave', function(){    this.iid && clearInterval(this.iid);});

I thought the mesh would move since I set its parent to camera but it stays in the same place. Any suggestions?

Hello,

 

this is because you move the target of the camera (and not its position)

I tried changing scene.activeCamera.target.z -= speed; to scene.activeCamera.position.z -= speed and now nothing moves.

Try:

testing.position.z -= vitesse;

or 

camera.position.z -= vitesse;

I can do testing.position.z and it works when I try camera.position.z everything disappears. I would like to only set the camera position though because I'm trying to add in a UI made of several different components.

You give a speed too fast on the camera.

try :

camera.position.z -= 0.1;

or

camera.position.z -= 0.05;

Test several speed.

The camera is an ArcRotateCamera. Either you change alpha and beta values (to change the rotation) or either youuse cam.setPosition() to compute alpha and beta values for you

That worked, thanks again Deltakosh!
