locking camera in Sun Earth corotating frame ecliptic
Posted: 10.05.2009, 12:18
I am trying to lock the camera in the Sun Earth co-rotating frame ecliptic centered on Earth
I have tried this:
But this locks the camera "up" axis to be fixed relative to the projection of the Earth Z body axis and thus it makes the ecliptic appears to rotate one way and then the other with a one year period.
So I tried this :
But it didn't change anything.
Is there a way to make the camera orientation fixed relative to Sun Earth direction + ecliptic Z axis in the script without creating a new body fixed to Earth with body frame equal to ecliptic in the ssc?
Thanks
I have tried this:
Code: Select all
select { object "Sol/Earth" }
follow { }
select { object "Sol" }
lock { }

Code: Select all
select { object "Sol/Earth" }
setframe { ref "Sol/Earth" coordsys "ecliptical" }
follow { }
select { object "Sol" }
lock { }
