Support / Matching mouse clicks to 3D co-ords

Thanks Andrei!

This works great (but I needed to add 'isNormalized=true' to the end of rayIntersectsAABB to get y=0).

If you're ever in the UK I'll buy you a beer!

Cheers!

Support / Matching mouse clicks to 3D co-ords
February 05, 2005, 10:57:16 PM
Hi!

I'm writing an applet where an insect follows mouse clicks.
The camera follows the insect from behind (height -240, distance 300).
To save valuable processing time the flat (ie Y=0) landscape is rendered as one big square with a texture on it.
I can use Interact2D to find the landscape, but how do I get more precise x,y,z 3D co-ords from the 2D (x,y)  where the user clicked? I know the y will be 0 but I'm not good enough at maths to work out how to get x & z!
The only way I can think of is breaking the landscape into lots of polys and using Interact2D, but this would play havoc with my processing time!
Can you help?
