How do I get the cameras xyz so i can use swprintf to print the x,y, and z coordinate to a status box or somthing? I tried looking at docs i cant find any way?

same way you get any node's coordinates

Code: Select all

core::vector3df someVector = camera->getPosition();

Shoud be:

Code: Select all

wchar tmp[1024];
swprintf (tmp, L"X: %f, Y: %f, Z: %f", someVector.X, someVector.Y, someVector.Z);

I currently have this:

wchar_t tmp[1024];
camera_pos=camera->getPosition();
swprintf(tmp, 1024, L"X: %f Y: %f Z: %f",camera_pos.X,camera_pos.Y,camera_pos.Z);
statusText->setText(tmp);

And X,Y,and Z area always 0?

are you using the FPS camera, b/c if you are the same thing happens to me everytime too. The getPosition, get AbsolutePosition and setPosition methods do not work with the FPS camera...
