PlayingInCanvas Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Aphrodite Starter Kit Planet with Points A PlayCanvas ready to play starter kit with easy to configure points and orbits on an animated globe sphere. See a live sample here! A complete PlayCanvas project is forked and added to your account. You will be receiving a ready to play project, with mobile-friendly assets and access to the full source code. You can use it to make a strategy game, an air-booking app or just as a playground for rendering data in 3D! Features list: 3D globe model extruded to showcase in detail the surface of the earth. Animated water shader which can be easily configured. Water/land textures blended with colors of your choice. Day/night shader effect with city lights fading in/out. Dynamic point generation from a simple JSON file. No coding required to update the points. Dynamic orbit/points connection line from the same JSON file. Again, no coding required! Orbits are rendered using a Bezier 4-point curve which correctly calculates the path for both long and short distances. A complete picker class supporting mouse/touch events: click down/up/hover on element. Simple UI elements are already in place: game menu and city modal. All points use real world latitude and longitude so you easily place a new point with accuracy. Support for multiple languages using a simple localization JSON file per language. Performance is great: All points are batched automatically resulting in draw calls being less than 10. All textures are compressed in VRAM, total texture size is <30MB Polygon count is quite low <40K Camera controls are very easy to configure and use the standard PlayCanvas model viewer scripts. Expanded to support animation methods which you can easily invoke. Get it now here: https://pic.pirron-rodon.one/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
