Non Euclidean (3d) environments with ViewportFrames + WorldModels

[FrostbittenMage (FROST)]

Hey folks, basically been trying to figure out a way to make a 3d environment / portal?? of sorts using worldmodels and viewportframes

basically wanna try and make a portal which has an “imposible” 3d scenery, kinda like how they did it in the lobby for The Hunt, back in March.


I think you can understand what i mean.

The things i’ve tried so far is setting the viewport camera to the current camera… yeah i am kiinda useless with this.

Can anybody give any help? Would love to see some answers to this, as it’d really help with the creation of my game.
Thanks

u make it a viewport then just put something inside of it and make it follow your camera

AKA just in a script make it current camera and thnen make the model inside of the viewpoir

Re-Creating a Portal Effect,

Just as a heads up I got a great tip from @Elttob on twitter regarding skyboxes and viewport frames. As a result I was able to implement them into these viewport portals. You can see it implemented in the portal demo:

If you want you can read the whole thread, but ultimately this is the final product you’re looking for.

Yeah no but this honestly doesn’t work, i tried it and it’s all offsetted and stuff

[FrostbittenMage (FROST)]

thanks for the heads up!

Quick question, is there a way i can make this so u cant walk through it and ur camera cant go through and see the other side of it?
and is there a way to make it so you can edit the position / rotation of it with a script, but also be see it through the portal?

The place is open-source so you can open it up and read the code to look.
