BBMOD_BaseCamera

A constructor defined in BBMOD_BaseCamera.gml

new BBMOD_BaseCamera()

Description

A camera with support for both orthographic and perspective projection.

Name	Description
AspectRatio	The camera's aspect ratio. Defaults to `window_get_width() / window_get_height()`.
AudioListener	If `true` then the camera updates position and orientation of the 3D audio listener in the BBMOD_BaseCamera.update_matrices method. Defaults to `true`.
Exposure	The camera's exposure value. Defaults to `1`.
Fov	The camera's field of view. Defaults to `60`.
Height	The height of the orthographic projection. If `undefined`, then it is computed from BBMOD_BaseCamera.Width using BBMOD_BaseCamera.AspectRatio. Defaults to `undefined`.
Orthographic	Use `true` to enable orthographic projection. Defaults to `false` (perspective projection).
Position	The camera's positon. Defaults to `(0, 0, 0)`.
Raw	An underlying GameMaker camera.
Target	A position where the camera is looking at.
Up	The up vector.
ViewProjectionMatrix	The `view * projection` matrix.
Width	The width of the orthographic projection. If `undefined`, then it is computed from BBMOD_BaseCamera.Height using BBMOD_BaseCamera.AspectRatio. Defaults to the window's width.
ZFar	Distance to the far clipping plane. Anything farther from the camera than this will not be visible. Defaults to `32768`.
ZNear	Distance to the near clipping plane. Anything closer to the camera than this will not be visible. Defaults to `0.1`.

Name	Description
apply	Applies the camera.
destroy	Frees memory used by the struct.
get_forward	Retrieves a vector pointing forward in the camera's direction.
get_proj_mat	Retrieves camera's projection matrix.
get_right	Retrieves a vector pointing right relative to the camera's direction.
get_up	Retrieves a vector pointing up relative to the camera's direction.
get_view_mat	Retrieves camera's view matrix.
screen_point_to_vec3	Unprojects a position on the screen into a direction in world-space.
update	Updates camera's matrices.
update_matrices	Recomputes camera's view and projection matrices.
world_to_screen	Computes screen-space position from a vector in world-space.
