Hello, I’m trying to get the intersection point of a mesh loaded through the FBXLoader on a mouseDown event, which works for the most part. But for some reason the rayCaster.intersectObjects seems to always be lagging behind a single mouseclick. My problem can be viewed in this fiddle . As you can …

This problem occurs when the canvas if not full screen. You can use the canvas bounds instead of the window width/height like so var canvasBounds = renderer.domElement.getBoundingClientRect(); mouse.x = ( ( event.clientX - canvasBounds.left ) / ( canvasBounds.right - canvasBounds.left ) ) * 2…

It’s also important that raycaster.setFromCamera( mouse, camera ); is executed with the latest event data. So place it always right before raycaster.intersectObjects(). Since raycaster.setFromCamera() was placed in your render loop, you have seen the previous click in the console.

As always thanks for the quick and clear replies guys, you’re amazing.
