Hi there,

I’m currently trying to implement a 4x ‘split-view’ with multiple views showing the same scene from the same point of view.
So what I need is to translate the rendered view to the top left quarter of the screen, for example. Moving the camera or the meshes is obviously not the solution as it would modify the perspective - I really need to render the view with the camera facing the scene, and then scale/translate the result. I’ve tried to prepend a translation to both the camera’s viewProjection and the lens’ matrix with no success; the rendered scene is not modified at all…

Any hints would be appreciated.
Thanks
Thomas

This maybe?

Hi John,

Thanks for the quick and detailed reply!
Do you have this code running somewhere? ‘cause I compiled it but instead of seeing 4x the same scene - as I would expect from reading the code indeed, I just see one scene spanning over the whole 800x600 surface.
Actually, it seems that even if you define one single view with a size of 400x300, it stills covers the entire window.

If it doesnt look like the pic without any modifications to the file.
Update to the latest version of Away3D.

Bummer! It works indeed with v4.1.4 but for some reason, my project is tied with v4.0.9 (mainly because we are using a custom material that I haven’t managed to re-create with v4.1 - I should probably seek some help in a separate post).

Thanks a lot.

John,

One additional question: when setting the same BitmapTexture as each view’s background, I don’t see it 4x in each quarter but as one bitmap filling the window. Am I doing something wrong or is it the expected behavior?

Thanks again
Thomas

Seems using multiviews isnt accounted for in backgroundRenderer.
So not you.

Done, thanks John.
