I want to create a skydome and made the shpere, texture loading also fine but I cannot move the camera inside the sphere. The sphere disappears. I know it is an amateur issue but cannot see the inside of the sphere.
Is it some kind of cutting or Z-buffer issue?
How can I fix it?
My code:
<html>
<head>
<script src="js/jquery-1.8.3.min.js"></script>
<script src="js/three.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="container">
</div>
<script>
function addSpaceSphere( ){
// set up the sphere vars
var radius = 200,
segments = 16,
rings = 16;
var material = new THREE.MeshPhongMaterial({
color:0xFFFFFF,
map: THREE.ImageUtils.loadTexture( 'textures/SPACE014SX.png' )
});
var sphere = new THREE.Mesh(
new THREE.SphereGeometry(
radius,
segments,
rings
),
material
);
// add the sphere to the scene
scene.add(sphere);
}
function addLights(){
// create a point light
var ambient = new THREE.AmbientLight( 0xFFFFFF );
scene.add( ambient );
}
function render() {
camera.lookAt( focus );
camera.updateProjectionMatrix();
renderer.render( scene, camera );
}
function animate() {
requestAnimationFrame( animate );
render();
}
function createScene(){
// add the camera to the scene
scene.add(camera);
// the camera starts at 0,0,0
// so pull it back
camera.position.x = 0;
camera.position.y = 0;
camera.position.z = 300;
// start the renderer
renderer.setSize(WIDTH, HEIGHT);
$container.append(renderer.domElement);
addSpaceSphere( );
addLights();
animate();
}
var WIDTH = window.innerWidth;
var HEIGHT = window.innerHeight;
var VIEW_ANGLE = 45,
ASPECT = WIDTH / HEIGHT,
NEAR = 0.01,
FAR = 10000;
var focus = new THREE.Vector3( 0, 0, 0 );
var isUserInteracting = false,
onPointerDownPointerX = 0, onPointerDownPointerY = 0,
lon = 0, onPointerDownLon = 0,
lat = 0, onPointerDownLat = 0,
phi = 0, theta = 0;
var $container = $('#container');
// create a WebGL renderer, camera
// and a scene
//var renderer = new THREE.CanvasRenderer();
var renderer = new THREE.WebGLRenderer();
var camera = new THREE.PerspectiveCamera(
VIEW_ANGLE, ASPECT, NEAR, FAR
);
var scene = new THREE.Scene();
createScene();
</script>
</body>
make the skydome material double-sided -- it's being culled. Set the 'side' attribute to THREE.DoubleSide
(or THREE.BackSide should work too, if the camera is ONLY inside the sphere)
