Hello, I am trying to place an object in front of my camera, facing the camera. The object should be placed 1.1m in front of, and 0.4m under the camera’s position. The object should not get tilted by the cameras rotation, and always have it’s up-vector in the Vector3.up direction. This is what I…

Is your use case related to the following topic? [image] Plane always look into camera Questions Is there a way to make a plane always face into camera/screen direction just like an billboard?

Yes kind off. But I am only interrested in rotation.y, the object I am rotating should not get tilted in any way, and only rotated around y-axis. But whenever I set rotation.x and rotation.z to 0, the y-rotation flips at 180 degrees

could this solution work too? …Parent the object to the camera camera.add(obj); … No sorry I didn’t understood

Not in my case I think. I don’t want the object to move with the camera, but I want to place it in front of the camera at a certain time. To give some context: I’m working on an AR app, and want to place the Object in front of the camera, when the user taps the screen. The object’s position should …

If(camera.rotation.y >= 90*Math.PI/180){ obj.rotation.y = -camera.rotation.y} Same for < - 90 ? Possibly, untested :slight_smile:

I had similar issue, solved by setting object.eulerOrder = ‘ZYX’ and camera.eulerOrder = ‘YXZ’. I would spend ages studying this issue by reading Primer Books suggested by Mugen87

This sloved my issue… thanks a lot :slight_smile:
