Why is it that when I intitialize my game with this code....
...the FindObjects method stops returning results here????
PLease, can someone help me
//do playerCam
T2DSceneCamera WorldCam = new T2DSceneCamera();
WorldCam.CenterPosition = new Vector2(0.0f, 0.0f); WorldCam.Extent = new Vector2(100.0f, 75.0f);
TorqueObjectDatabase.Instance.Register(WorldCam);
TorqueObjectType playerCam = TorqueObjectDatabase.Instance.GetObjectType("playerCam");
if (player != null)
{
WorldCam.Mount(player, "select", false);
}
// display the camera on screen
GUIStyle WorldStyle = new GUIStyle();
GUISceneview WorldView = new GUISceneview();
WorldView.Style = WorldStyle;
WorldView.Camera = WorldCam;
WorldView.RenderMask = playerCam;
// only render objects of type "playerCam"
GUICanvas.Instance.SetContentControl(WorldView);...the FindObjects method stops returning results here????
protected List<ISceneContainerObject> _GetUnit(Vector2 location, TorqueObjectType unitType)
{
List<ISceneContainerObject> foundObjects = new List<ISceneContainerObject>();
T2DSceneGraph mySceneGraph = (T2DSceneGraph)TorqueObjectDatabase.Instance.FindObjects("DefaultSceneGraph");
mySceneGraph.FindObjects(location, 1.0f, unitType, 0xFFFFFFFF, foundObjects);
if (foundObjects.Count > 0)
{
return foundObjects;
}
else
return null; }PLease, can someone help me

Actually, this "FindObject" method was working perfectly until I implemented the new camera objects and GUISceneView block of code. So, basically I uncomment the top block of code - the bottom block works fine. Is there some way I need to associate my T2dSceneGraph w/ the new camera/worldview stuff??? Thanks.

T2DSceneGraph.FindObjects only returns visible objects. Maybe your problem is that setting WorldView.RenderMask = playerCam;makes your objects invisible.

Thanks Robert, I'll give that a shot.
