Seems like my ambition keeps exceeding Blend4Web's current abilities! . The nice thing about creativity is it seems there's always a workaround. I'll give the engine route a try, and keep exploring

I'm hoping this is just another case of my overlooking some important setting.

The way I read it, the "Halo" option under Material > Game Settings > Face Orientation should force a mapped texture to orient toward the screen in some way, and Object > Blend4Web > Billboard should set an object to do much the same.

However, in the first case I see no change in texture view behavior. It rotates right along with the object I've applied it to, as normal.

Worse, in the second case I get an object that no longer displays my applied texture, and scales and rotates in a way that I can make no sense of - the screencap shows what I'd like to have displayed above the figure's head, and the linked html file shows the confusing result: if you turn the figure upside down you'll see a horizontal plain white rectangle instead of the 'chakra' emblem I created.

As always, thanks very much for your help and patience.

Now it's gotten stranger - maybe I originally did this before updating Blender and the plugin (and I don't feel like reinstalling the old version just to make sure) but the symptom no longer shows when I generate and load the HTML fine.

I may as well throw this in - I don't suppose image textures can be animated, like maybe slowly fading between two images over and over? I have an idea of something else I wanted to try…

Thanks! I have a general idea how to do this, but its always good to get Blend4Web specifics.

What's the best or preferred way to send the file? Email (above link, attn: Pavel?), or a link to file, or…?

I don't know if this is a bug or just a setting I've done wrong, but the highlight* on this object, which I've applied a halo material to, is shifted off to the right, and I'd like it to be centered. Any idea what's going on?



*I'm guessing it's not actually a highlight since it seems unrelated to how I have my lighting set up.

I've been asked to recreate the following video effects in 3D. Can you give me any advice on how best to approach this with Blend4Web? Thank you!

I also would like to see a constraint on panning range in "target" mode. I'd like to prevent such things as being able to see the bottom of a ground plane or underside of a structure.
