I am new to three js. i want to display a video on plane Geometry . i tried with the following code but it is showing a blank web page with out any errors
var video = document.getElementById('video');
video.src = "***VIDEO URL***";
video.load();
video.play();
var texture = new THREE.VideoTexture(videoImage);
texture.needsUpdate;
texture.minFilter = THREE.LinearFilter;
texture.magFilter = THREE.LinearFilter;
texture.format = THREE.RGBFormat;
texture.crossOrigin = 'anonymous';
var meshPlace = new THREE.Mesh(
new THREE.PlaneGeometry(USE_WIDTH, USE_HEIGHT , 40),
new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({ map: texture }),);
scene.add( meshPlace );
Think of video as a sequence of images. So to "play" this video on your 3D object - you'll have to pass every single frame of that sequence to your material and then update that material.
Good place to start is here: https://github.com/mrdoob/three.js/wiki/Updates
And here: http://stemkoski.github.io/Three.js/Video.html
I fount this on Using Video as texture with Three.js
Hope this helps :)

I am trying to change the color of my 3D model "behind" the png texture I set (which includes transparency).
I have done a lot of researches, and i finally found an example with a cube which actually works, but I can't understand how to make that with my gltf 3D model (not a BoxGeometry).
METHOD :
Define an array of two materials,
first one is my png texture with transparency = true;
second one is a basic material with its plain color (the color i will be able to change later...)
var materialBack = new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({color: 0xfadce6});
var materialTxt = new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({map: mytexture,transparent: true});
var materials = [materialBack, materialTxt];
It works perfect with a cube :
var geometry = new THREE.BoxBufferGeometry();
geometry.clearGroups();
geometry.addGroup( 0, Infinity, 0 );
geometry.addGroup( 0, Infinity, 1 );
var cube = new THREE.Mesh( geometry, materials );
Problem : I can't figure out how to do the same when my model is actually an imported GLTF, and not a "BoxBufferGeometry". It looks like we can't assign an array to o.material :
var loader = new THREE.GLTFLoader();
loader.load(mymodel.glb, function(gltf) {
gltf.scene.traverse((o) => {
if (o.isMesh) {
o.material = materials;
}
scene.add(gltf.scene);
});
I also tried to extract geometry from gltf, then create a new mesh, but without success :
var loader = new THREE.GLTFLoader();
loader.load(mymodel.glb, function(gltf) {
var geometry = gltf.scene.getObjectByName("name").geometry;
mymesh = new THREE.Mesh(geometry,materials);
scene.add(mymesh);
});
Can someone please help ?
SEE THE SOLUTION BELOW
I am really confused. The target i am trying to achieve is;
Use multiple textures on a loaded mesh.
I have searched multiple times and still i can see the similar questions but nothing helped me.
What i'v tried is (yet);
Created a new mesh with the target mesh's geometry and pushed to target object3d element. (Like a photoshop layer.)
var texture = new THREE.Texture(mapCanvas);
texture.minFilter = THREE.LinearFilter;
texture.needsUpdate = true;
var material = new THREE.MeshPhongMaterial({map: texture, transparent: true});
var targetMesh = book.children[0].children[1],
newMesh = new THREE.Mesh(targetMesh.geometry, material);
book.children[0].children.push(newMesh);
Result, wrong geometry attributes, or am i missing something?.
But i think it could be a easier solution like using multiple textures at the same time with a correct order.
Full code:
sampleImage.onload = function() {
var mapCanvas = document.createElement('canvas');
mapCanvas.width = sampleImage.width;
mapCanvas.height = sampleImage.height;
var ctx = mapCanvas.getContext('2d');
ctx.translate(sampleImage.width / 2, sampleImage.height / 2);
ctx.rotate(Math.PI);
ctx.translate(-sampleImage.width / 2, -sampleImage.height / 2);
ctx.drawImage(sampleImage, 0, 0, sampleImage.width, sampleImage.height);
var texture = new THREE.Texture(mapCanvas);
texture.minFilter = THREE.LinearFilter;
texture.needsUpdate = true;
var material = new THREE.MeshPhongMaterial({map: texture, transparent: true});
var targetMesh = book.children[0].children[1],
newMesh = new THREE.Mesh(targetMesh.geometry, material);
book.children[0].children.push(newMesh);
};
I found a solution with cloning.
Do not push directly to the mesh group using javascript array push.
use .add method.
book.children[0].add(newMesh);
Three.js is awesome! I'm having trouble adding a static background scene to earth.html demo. I've tried using CSS, this code
var texture = new THREE.ImageUtils.loadTexture( 'rainier.jpg' );
var backgroundMesh = new THREE.Mesh(
new THREE.PlaneGeometry(2, 2, 0),
new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({ map: texture
}));
backgroundMesh .material.depthTest - false;
backgroundMesh .material.depthWrite - false;
//Background Scene
var backgroundScene - new THREE.Scene();
var backgroundCamera - new THREE.Camera();
backgroundScene .add(backgroundCamera );
backgroundScene .add(backgroundMesh );
to no avail! So far I've changed the texture of the sphere successfully. When I add the code above it displays the background and no sphere? This is my first experience with THREE.js. I started with modifying a demo to get the feel for the syntax and operations. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I'm trying to apply a texture to a planeGeometry using the three.js engine.
I should be seeing a football field, I'm actually seeing black.
If I replace the map:texture argument with color:0x80ff80, I get a field of solid green, demonstrating that the geometry is in the correct place.
The page contains an which appears in the files before any scripts. I can display that image, demonstrating that there isn't a problem with the image.
The files are being served locally by an http server.
The code I'm using to build the material and PlaneGeometry is below. Any ideas appreciated. Thank you.
function buildField( fieldLength, fieldWidth, scene) {
var image = document.getElementById("fieldTexture");
var texture = new THREE.Texture(image);
texture.minFilter = THREE.LinearFilter;
var geometry = new THREE.PlaneGeometry(fieldLength, fieldWidth, 5, 5);
var material = new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial( {map:texture, side:THREE.DoubleSide});
var field = new THREE.Mesh(geometry, material);
field.rotation.x = -Math.PI/2;
scene.add(field);
}
THREE.ImageUtils is already deprecated. (source)
Use THREE.TextureLoader().load('field.png') instead
Try this, own THREE.js methods usually work better...:
texture = THREE.ImageUtils.loadTexture('field.png');
material = new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({map: texture});
var field = new THREE.Mesh(geometry, material);
How to use THREE.ImageUtils.loadTexture() in jsfiddle. I have created a demo [ http://jsfiddle.net/georgeneil/cfrsj/10/ ]. Here I am not able to view the texture. I am getting the points rendered as black.
You can base64 encode the image. And then add the string in your code.

The problem is you cannot use a texture that is hosted externally. Here is some code I created to put a texture on a plane. I believe I adapted this code from one of mr doob's projects:
img = new Image();
texture = new THREE.Texture(img);
img.onload = function() {
texture.needsUpdate = true;
makeParticle();
};
img.src = "http://www.aerotwist.com/tutorials/creating-particles-with-three-js/images/particle.png";
geometry = new THREE.PlaneGeometry( 438, 695, 200 );
material = new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial( {map: texture} );
