I want to create new mesh before each render, here's my code(a minimal demo):
let canvas,
engine,
camera,
scene;
function initEngine(){
canvas = document.getElementById("renderCanvas");
engine = new BABYLON.Engine(canvas, true);
}
function createScene(){
initEngine();
let scene = new BABYLON.Scene(engine);
camera = new BABYLON.ArcRotateCamera("camera", Math.PI / 2, Math.PI / 2, 4, BABYLON.Vector3.Zero(), scene);
camera.attachControl(canvas, true);
let light1 = new BABYLON.HemisphericLight("light1", new BABYLON.Vector3(0,1,0), scene);
let ground = BABYLON.MeshBuilder.CreateGround(
"ground",
{
width:30,
height:30
},
scene
);
ground.position.y -= 0.5;
let sphere1 = BABYLON.MeshBuilder.CreateSphere(
"sphere1",
{
},
scene
);
let sphere2 = sphere1.clone("sphere2");
let sphere3 = sphere1.clone("sphere3");
sphere1.position.z = -18;
sphere2.position.z = -19;
sphere3.position.z = -20;
let snake = [
sphere1,
sphere2,
sphere3
];
(function(){
let counter = 4;
scene.registerBeforeRender(function(){
let newOne = BABYLON.MeshBuilder.CreateSphere(
"sphere" + counter,
{
},
scene
);
let head = snake[0];
newOne.position = head.position;
newOne.position.x += 0.02;
snake.unshift(newOne);
++counter;
});
})();
window.addEventListener("resize", function(){
engine.resize();
});
return scene;
}
scene = createScene();
engine.runRenderLoop(function(){
// box.position.z += 0.01;
scene.render();
});
My expecting behavior is to create a series of spheres, each position.x is slightly higher than the previous one. However, there are only three meshes in the scene after rendering, like this:

I want to know what is wrong with my code, and how to implement it properly?
By the way, what is the difference between scene.removeMesh(mesh) and mesh.dispose()?
It's because of this statement.
newOne.position = head.position;
It just copy a reference. so now the new sphere and snake[0] share a same position instance, so all the newly created spheres share a same position instance(by holding a position reference), and located in the same position.

Following the manual, I made a three.js example, but the light effect doesn't appear, why the light source doesn't appear without any error about the light source?

I'm sorry for posting multiple questions with a low difficulty problem, but, I'm learning three.js for the first time. In vscode, there is no three.js code hint library, and it's hard. How can I express the light effect normally in my example code? Will there be? thanks for reading the problem
Do not use MeshBasicMaterial, but MeshStandardMaterial. MeshBasicMaterial for drawing geometries in a flat or wireframe way. MeshStandardMaterial is a physically based material that makes the surface interact with the light.
I made a new THREE.PlaneBufferGeometry(100, 100, 100, 100); and have been able to update position of vertices to change the mesh's shape like following:
I achieved this by following this discussion: Threejs drag points
What am I looking for?
I want to be able to extrude a face (grab 4 vertices), so I achieve something like this:
I want to keep it all part of the same mesh, to keep it clean, because I will be exporting it as a single mesh with the ColladaExporter.
Edit
In order to achieve this, I would need to clone vertex and extrude them upwards. This means, adding 4 new vertex and connecting them together.
I tried this:
var geo = new THREE.PlaneBufferGeometry(1, 1, 1, 1);
geo.rotateX(-Math.PI * 0.5);
geo.translate(0,0.5,0);
//And the merge them together
var newplane = BufferGeometryUtils.mergeBufferGeometries([plane, geo]);
newplane = BufferGeometryUtils.mergeVertices(newplane,1);
And I got this:
I was hoping all vertices merged with the plane, leaving a flat plane. I did this for testing purposes, but it only merged one corner.
I started building a "cube" with multiple and placing them in the right spot, to then apply again BufferGeometryUtils.mergeVertices, but the vertices don't seem to merge correctly:
Edit 2 / Progress
I managed to create a PlaneBufferGeometry and extrude it by manually modifying the vertexes and normals, as told in: https://threejs.org/docs/#api/en/core/BufferGeometry
Extruded plane has all vertices connected, so whenever I drag one vertex it drags a whole piece, the problem now is that I need to connect these new vertices to the original grid to avoid this:
Goal is to merge all vertices, now I need to find a way to merge the base plane with the new extruded piece.
Edit 3 / Done
I made it, I will post answer when I have some time. I spent all day long on these today, and already very tired.
Not sure if that's what you need, but here's the modified example from the answer you referred to (please notice the difference in mouseMove implementation). I've extended that for two points only, but I believe you should get the idea:
var scene = new THREE.Scene();
var camera = new THREE.PerspectiveCamera(60, window.innerWidth / window.innerHeight, 1, 1000);
camera.position.set(1.25, 7, 7);
camera.lookAt(scene.position);
var renderer = new THREE.WebGLRenderer({
antialias: true
});
renderer.setSize(window.innerWidth, window.innerHeight);
document.body.appendChild(renderer.domElement);
var geometry = new THREE.PlaneBufferGeometry(10, 10, 10, 10);
geometry.rotateX(-Math.PI * 0.5);
var plane = new THREE.Mesh(geometry, new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({
wireframe: true,
color: "red"
}));
scene.add(plane);
var points = new THREE.Points(geometry, new THREE.PointsMaterial({
size: 0.25,
color: "yellow"
}));
scene.add(points);
var raycaster = new THREE.Raycaster();
raycaster.params.Points.threshold = 0.25;
var mouse = new THREE.Vector2();
var intersects = null;
var plane = new THREE.Plane();
var planeNormal = new THREE.Vector3();
var currentIndex = null;
var planePoint = new THREE.Vector3();
var dragging = false;
window.addEventListener("mousedown", mouseDown, false);
window.addEventListener("mousemove", mouseMove, false);
window.addEventListener("mouseup", mouseUp, false);
function mouseDown(event) {
setRaycaster(event);
getIndex();
dragging = true;
}
function mouseMove(event) {
if (dragging && currentIndex !== null) {
setRaycaster(event);
raycaster.ray.intersectPlane(plane, planePoint);
var indicesToMoveUp = [currentIndex-1, currentIndex];
var delta_x = geometry.attributes.position.getX(currentIndex) - planePoint.x;
geometry.attributes.position.setXYZ(currentIndex, planePoint.x, planePoint.y, planePoint.z);
geometry.attributes.position.needsUpdate = true;
var old_x_neighbour = geometry.attributes.position.getX(currentIndex - 1);
geometry.attributes.position.setY(currentIndex-1, planePoint.y);
geometry.attributes.position.setZ(currentIndex-1, planePoint.z);
geometry.attributes.position.setX(currentIndex-1, old_x_neighbour - delta_x);
geometry.attributes.position.needsUpdate = true;
}
}
function mouseUp(event) {
dragging = false;
currentIndex = null;
}
function getIndex() {
intersects = raycaster.intersectObject(points);
if (intersects.length === 0) {
currentIndex = null;
return;
}
currentIndex = intersects[0].index;
setPlane(intersects[0].point);
}
function setPlane(point) {
planeNormal.subVectors(camera.position, point).normalize();
plane.setFromNormalAndCoplanarPoint(planeNormal, point);
}
function setRaycaster(event) {
getMouse(event);
raycaster.setFromCamera(mouse, camera);
}
function getMouse(event) {
mouse.x = (event.clientX / window.innerWidth) * 2 - 1;
mouse.y = -(event.clientY / window.innerHeight) * 2 + 1;
}
render();
function render() {
requestAnimationFrame(render);
renderer.render(scene, camera);

EDITED. SOLUTION FOUND
I need to know how to implement animation of the points in a curve to simulate string movement in 3D with performance in mind.
Multiple strings between two points for example.
Fiddle provided. (code updated)
So I have curveObject and I'm trying to change position of a point1. (code updated)
var camera, scene, renderer;
var angle1 = angle2 = 0;

curve.v3 = new THREE.Vector3(cp[0], cp[1], cp[2]);
var j, stepSize = 1/(N-1);
for (j = 0; j < N; j++) {
geometry.vertices.push( curve.getPoint(j * stepSize) );
}
return geometry;
};

I see value increment in console,
but no actual visual feedback. My guess - I need to update curve somehow.
Final goal is to smoothly animate slow sine-like movement of the curve.
like control points of bezier curve are being moved in Photoshop.
(The goal was reached. Sadly not by my own. I've stumbled upon some helper code lib at http://cs.wellesley.edu/~cs307/lectures/15.shtml so BIG thanks to these guys.)
There is little info regarding curve animation in threejs.
Maybe someone already got going something similar.

Today I've been experimenting with building my first ever skybox in three.js. I've read a lot of tutorials and the code I've ended up with is based on this one: http://learningthreejs.com/blog/2011/08/15/lets-do-a-sky/
I did make a few changes in order to allow for the images to load first, and to make it compatible with the version of three.js which I am using.
I've overcome a lot of small problems to get to the point I am currently at, but cannot find any answer to my current issue despite having searched quite hard. My problem is that despite using purpose-built skybox textures downloaded from the internet, it is glaringly obvious that my skybox is a cube with corners and edges. The textures appear heavily distorted and are not at all convincing.
Here is a screenshot of how my skybox looks:
And here is a link to the site from which I downloaded the images:
http://www.humus.name/index.php?page=Cubemap&item=Yokohama3
As you can see, in their preview it looks much better.
I've tried this with a few different downloaded textures and every time it is very obvious that you are looking at the inside of a cube.
Here's my code (I'm including all my code, not just the section which creates the skybox):
var scene;
var camera;
var renderer;
function createRenderer () {
renderer = new THREE.WebGLRenderer();
renderer.setClearColor(0x000000, 1.0)
renderer.setSize(window.innerWidth, window.innerHeight)
renderer.shadowMapEnabled = true;
//renderer.shadowCameraNear = 0.5;
//renderer.shadowCameraFar = 500;
}
function createCamera () {
camera = new THREE.PerspectiveCamera(
45,
window.innerWidth/window.innerHeight,
0.1, 1000
);
camera.position.x = 50;
camera.position.y = 30;
camera.position.z = 40;
camera.lookAt(scene.position);
}
function createPlane () {
var material = new THREE.MeshLambertMaterial({
color: 0xcccccc,
})
var geometry = new THREE.PlaneGeometry(40, 40)
var plane = new THREE.Mesh(geometry, material)
plane.receiveShadow = true;
plane.rotation.x = -Math.PI/2
plane.position.y = -6;
scene.add(plane)
}
function createLight () {
var spotLight = new THREE.DirectionalLight(0xffffff);
spotLight.position.set( 0, 50, 20 );
spotLight.shadowCameraVisible = true;
spotLight.shadowDarkness = 0.5
spotLight.shadowCameraNear = 0;
spotLight.shadowCameraFar = 100;
spotLight.shadowCameraLeft = -50;
spotLight.shadowCameraRight = 50;
spotLight.shadowCameraTop = 50;
spotLight.shadowCameraBottom = -50;
spotLight.castShadow = true;
scene.add(spotLight);
}
function createSkyboxAndSphere () {
var urlPrefix = "Yokohama3/";
var urls = [ urlPrefix + "posx.jpg", urlPrefix + "negx.jpg",
urlPrefix + "posy.jpg", urlPrefix + "negy.jpg",
urlPrefix + "posz.jpg", urlPrefix + "negz.jpg" ];
var textureCube = THREE.ImageUtils.loadTextureCube( urls , undefined, function () {;
var shader = THREE.ShaderLib["cube"];
var uniforms = THREE.UniformsUtils.clone( shader.uniforms );
shader.uniforms['tCube'].value = textureCube; // textureCube has been init before
var material = new THREE.ShaderMaterial({
fragmentShader : shader.fragmentShader,
vertexShader : shader.vertexShader,
uniforms : shader.uniforms,
depthWrite : false,
side: THREE.BackSide,
});
var geometry = new THREE.BoxGeometry(100, 100, 100)
var skybox = new THREE.Mesh(geometry, material)
scene.add(skybox)
var material = new THREE.MeshPhongMaterial({
color: "red",
envMap: textureCube,
reflectivity: 0.3,
})
var geometry = new THREE.SphereGeometry(6, 30, 15)
var sphere = new THREE.Mesh(geometry, material)
sphere.castShadow = true;
sphere.receiveShadow = true;
scene.add(sphere)
});
}
function init () {
scene = new THREE.Scene();
createRenderer();
createCamera();
createLight();
createPlane ();
createSkyboxAndSphere ();
document.getElementById("container").appendChild(renderer.domElement)
render ()
}
function render () {
renderer.render(scene, camera)
requestAnimationFrame(render);
}
window.onload = function () {
init ();
}
I suspect I am fundamentally misunderstanding something about how cubemapping and skyboxes work - I am very new to this in particular and javascript in general and am aware of huge gaps in my knowledge.
My apologies if the answer to this is obvious and/or the question has been asked before, and a pre-emptive thanks for your help!
Your camera needs to be in the center of the skybox -- or at least near the center.
So either move your camera very close to the box center, or update the box position every frame to match the camera position.
Or make the skybox much bigger relative to the camera offset from the origin.
Or place the skybox in a separate scene and have two cameras and two render passes, as in this example.
three.js r.74
i'm new in three.js and have a problem by scaling a object. I already looked at the documentation (https://github.com/mrdoob/three.js/wiki/Updates), but i don't really understand it at all.
My Problem: By changing a HTML-select-element the CubeGeometry should be scaled in the x-direction. That is already working BUT the "old" Cube do not disappear. So i have 2 Cubes. But i want only one Cube with the current size. I hope you can understand my problem ;-)
So here is my Code from the View:
$(document).on('change',".configurator > form select",function(event){
// update 3D-object - is that a nice way???
$.getScript("/javascripts/3D-animation.js.erb", function(){
// here comes the update
OBJECT3D.updateObject();
});
})
And here is my 3D-animation.js.erb:
var drawing_area;
var renderer;
var camera;
var obj;
var scene;
var OBJECT3D = {};
$(function() {
// get drawing_area
drawing_area = document.getElementById("canvas_wrapper");
// initialize renderer
renderer = new THREE.WebGLRenderer();
renderer.setSize(drawing_area.clientWidth, drawing_area.clientHeight);
renderer.setClearColor( 0xffffff, 1);
// add renderer to drawing_area
drawing_area.appendChild(renderer.domElement);
// initialize camera
camera = new THREE.PerspectiveCamera(45, drawing_area.clientWidth/drawing_area.clientHeight, 1, 100000);
camera.position.z = 1000;
camera.position.y = 100;
camera.position.x = 300;//-0.78;
// create texture
var texture = THREE.ImageUtils.loadTexture( "/images/materials/texture_1.jpg" );
texture.wrapS = THREE.RepeatWrapping;
texture.wrapT = THREE.RepeatWrapping;
texture.repeat.set( 1, 1 );
// create object
var obj_form = new THREE.CubeGeometry(250,250,250);
var obj_material = new THREE.MeshLambertMaterial( { map: texture,ambient: 0x999999 } );
OBJECT3D.obj = new THREE.Mesh(obj_form, obj_material);
// so what do i need here?
OBJECT3D.obj.geometry.dynamic = true;
// OBJECT3D.obj.geometry.__dirtyVertices = true;
// OBJECT3D.obj.geometry.__dirtyNormals = true;
// OBJECT3D.obj.geometry.verticesNeedUpdate = true;
// create scene
scene = new THREE.Scene();
scene.add(camera);
scene.add(OBJECT3D.obj);
// create lights
pointLight = new THREE.PointLight(0xFFFFFF);
pointLight.position.x = 400;
pointLight.position.y = 200;
pointLight.position.z = 1300;
scene.add(pointLight);
ambientLight = new THREE.AmbientLight( 0xffffff);
scene.add( ambientLight );
requestAnimationFrame(render);
function render(){
requestAnimationFrame(render);
OBJECT3D.obj.rotation.y += 0.005;
OBJECT3D.obj.rotation.z += 0.005;
renderer.render(scene, camera);
};
// update object
OBJECT3D.updateObject = function () {
console.log("in update");
OBJECT3D.obj.scale.x = 2.5; // SCALE
OBJECT3D.obj.geometry.needsUpdate = true;
//render();
}
});
Sorry, if the Code is not the best one, but i'm really new in this stuff! :) hope you can help me!
Thanks!
I think it is because you are using $.getScript method. This will load your script each time again and create a new instance of OBJECT3D.
I propose that you make sure that your code in 3D-animation.js.erb will be included and called only once upon the load of a page (include it just like any other regular javascript file) and then call your update directly like this:
$(document).on('change',".configurator > form select", function(event) {
OBJECT3D.updateObject();
});
also, I believe you can drop following lines of code:
OBJECT3D.obj.geometry.needsUpdate = true;
and
OBJECT3D.obj.geometry.dynamic = true;
