Can anyone tell me how to determine a vector from a vertex to the eye/camera in the vertex or geometry shader?
Thanks!
Can anyone tell me how to determine a vector from a vertex to the eye/camera in the vertex or geometry shader?
Thanks!
vec3 eyeVec = (gl_ModelviewMatrix * gl_Vertex).xyz;
Shouldn’t you put a “-” before?

Yeah, the question was about the opposite vector, so I guess “-” should be there.
I alsways calclate vector from eye to vertex because it’s better for reflect() and refract().
Thanks guys,
I’ll give it a try on monday.
I was trying this actually in the Geometry Shader. However it seems that this:
vec4 pos = gl_ModelViewMatrix * vertex;
gl_Position = pos;
is different from:
vec4 pos = vertex;
gl_Position = gl_ModelViewMatrix * pos;
Any idea why?
It is different. gl_Position is same but pos is different in case 1 and case 2.
Ok, but the actual result is different. And that is based on the gl_Position. I would expect no visual difference.
