Get camera position (actual)

[harikumar001]

Hey guys,

Could anybody please help me find the actual position of the camera. Not the position in world space, but the actual position without any transformations.

For instance a mesh may have vertices (-1.5, 1, 3) but position maybe (100,300,50). Similarly I  am trying to get the actual position of the cam which may be at world position 600, 20, 500. Hope you get my query.

Regards

An position of a camera without any transformations is 0,0,0. That's probably not what you're looking for tho, and you're not explaining it very well. The actual position IS the world position in TV units. What is "vertices" , is that a 3d position, or a group of vertices, like a sphere?

Oh, if you mean the camera position relative to the mesh then (pseudocode):

PositionMesh = New TV_3DVECTOR : Get
PositionCamera = New TV_3DVECTOR : Get
RelativePositionCamera = PositionCamera - PositionMesh

That it?
