Axis and Interaction of whole scene

[jamsab]

Hey people another basic question from me, i am trying to learn how to make the whole scene move including the background once it has been commanded eg using some controlling node or device,

a good example would be like this video with the golf :- http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pl ... -x2k#at=54

I think i will have to use the touch orbit node somehow, but my first hurdle is how to include the background into it.

Any help would be great
Thanks

the background is an hemisphere with inverted normals and one texture
you can rotate the car an its floor but the background can have different rotation if you want to maintain a relative scale.
In the case of a sky background it can't rotate at the same axis car speed.
The sky is not parented to the car's axis.

Hey Jamsab,
have a look at the attached example, there is one example showing an easy ZUI and another example showing an object which is placed in the center and you can rotate around it.

I referred to this post here by Chrstian:

Very helpful .

Cheers,

Hi again, i am slowly getting my head around but im struggling on 1 thing, which is how to use the Touch Orbit Node instead of the Touch transformation Node, i cant see why it shouldn't work by just replacing, but i am missing something,, any help would be good.

Thanks
Jamie
