FreeCamera vs ArcRotateCamera on mobile device

[3Dlove]

Hello guys,

 

I've done something with FreeCamera on desktop,

but FreeCamera doesn't work with touch on mobile device

 

So I tried use an ArcRotateCamera but I believe that I can't change the inertia for my movement :

 

Here is my code :

 

 

With FreeCamera

var camera = new BABYLON.FreeCamera("freeCam", new BABYLON.Vector3(0, 2, -10), scene);camera.applyGravity = true;camera.checkCollisions = true;camera.inertia = 0.8;scene.activeCamera = camera;camera.attachControl(canvas);

var move = 2$("#leftButton img").click(function() { 	var translation = new BABYLON.Vector3(-move,0,0);	translation = BABYLON.Vector3.TransformNormal(translation, scene.activeCamera.getWorldMatrix());		scene.activeCamera.cameraDirection = translation;});

That works well on desktop only.

 

 

With ArcRotateCamera :

var camera = new BABYLON.ArcRotateCamera("ArcRotateCamera", 1, 0.8, 10, new BABYLON.Vector3(0, 0, 0), scene);camera.checkCollisions = true;camera.setPosition(new BABYLON.Vector3(0, 2, -20));camera.lowerRadiusLimit = camera.radius;camera.upperRadiusLimit = camera.radius;camera.inertia = 0.8;scene.activeCamera = camera;camera.attachControl(canvas);

var move = 2;$("#leftButton img").click(function() { 	var translation = new BABYLON.Vector3(-move,0,0);	translation = BABYLON.Vector3.TransformNormal(translation, scene.activeCamera.getWorldMatrix());		translation.y = 0;	scene.activeCamera.target.addInPlace(translation);});

How to use FreeCamera with touch on mobile device ?

or how to change the inertia of the deplacement with "target.addInPlace(translation)" with ArcRotateCamera ?

 

If it's possible, I prefer FreeCamera on mobile solution =)

 

Thanks for your help

Hola, the TouchCamera (http://doc.babylonjs.com/page.php?p=24880) is a free camera for mobile devices. A bit more about it here - http://doc.babylonjs.com/page.php?p=22061

Hello,

 

I knew TouchCamera but I would like to move orientation camera vertically and horizontaly like with freeCamera.

But touchCamera do only horizontaly orientation, and if we slide vertically, we move the camera (translation, not rotation).

 

I've added 4 buttons to move on the scene =)

I think it's about the gesture position. Where on the screen do you trigger the gesture. I haven't thoroughly used a touch camera so I can't give pointers, but I do know that it is capable of everything a free camera can. Only with touch gestures :-)

Indeed, the Touch camera can only move forward and rotate. A FreeCamera for mobile does not exist right now.

What about the VirtualJoystickCamera in this case?

Hello.

Have you tried to put a far target (or play with target position) so your movement will seem like a plane?

Edit: I refer to the use of ArcRotateCamera with a far target. A sphere with a huge radius becomes a plane. So your movement would be like a plane instead of like a sphere. I'll give it a try.
