[SOLVED] Spawn screen element at entity position

[Leonidas]

Hi @AliMoe,

I haven’t really done something similar to help out. But if you are just trying to put a 2D graphic on top of a world model/entity maybe you can get away with using a screen component.

You can use a plane facing to the camera with a regular material and have it render on top of the scene. Take a look at this post:

[SOLVED] Trying to put element ui image on top of entity

I’m trying to put an element ui over an entity. So when the player presses a key it moves to where it is. I know an element ui works in a 2d screen element and an entity is in a 3d space. So I’m using the function worldToScreen of the camera: var elementPos = new pc.Vec3(); this.mainCam.camera.worldToScreen(this.entity.getPosition(), elementPos); this.element.setLocalPosition(elementPos); It moves the element but it’s never over the entity, it doesn’t even cover it a bit. It’s always too far …
