GUI on a model

by Mikael Pettersson · in Game Design and Creative Issues · 03/25/2009 (4:39 am) · 3 replies

Anyone know of a way to render a GUI file on a model, and be manipulate it like a computer screen (like in Doom 3)?


I can't seem to find any resource on it.

Are you wanting to show videos or manipulate camera views or just simply change the display?

In-game Theora object -- doesn't work in TGEa!

And there's also a variety of resources, threads, documentation, etc on how to use setSkin or even ifl's in Torque.

You'll want to have a look at Orion's excellent Gui3DProjectionCtrl resource, it'll be just the ticket for ya.

Also do a search for "gui in texture", which was done for Splinter Cell type stuff (the security pad, computer terminals, etc).
