Problem With Changing From One Sphere To Another

I am currently trying to create an environment where I have two sphere objects where there is a 360 panorama picture in each of them. I created an object in the first sphere which I want to click and then end up in the second sphere. I tried to do this according to a tutorial I found on youtube. But apparently when I click the button nothing happens. Does anybody know what could be the problem?

 

Hey,
could you provide the link of the tutorial and some parts of your code?

Cheers

 

Hi,

sure, that´s the link for the tutorial:

And that´s the code for the script "Change.Sphere":

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class SphereChanger : MonoBehaviour {



//This object should be called 'Fader' and placed over the camera
GameObject m_Fader;

//This ensures that we don't mash to change spheres
bool changing = false;


void Awake()
{

//Find the fader object
m_Fader = GameObject.Find("Fader");

//Check if we found something
if (m_Fader == null)
Debug.LogWarning("No Fader object found on camera.");

}


public void ChangeSphere(Transform nextSphere)
{

//Start the fading process
StartCoroutine(FadeCamera(nextSphere));

}


IEnumerator FadeCamera(Transform nextSphere)
{

//Ensure we have a fader object
if (m_Fader != null)
{
//Fade the Quad object in and wait 0.75 seconds
StartCoroutine(FadeIn(0.75f, m_Fader.GetComponent<Renderer>().material));
yield return new WaitForSeconds(0.75f);

//Change the camera position
Camera.main.transform.parent.position = nextSphere.position;

//Fade the Quad object out
StartCoroutine(FadeOut(0.75f, m_Fader.GetComponent<Renderer>().material));
yield return new WaitForSeconds(0.75f);
}
else
{
//No fader, so just swap the camera position
Camera.main.transform.parent.position = nextSphere.position;
}


}


IEnumerator FadeOut(float time, Material mat)
{
//While we are still visible, remove some of the alpha colour
while (mat.color.a > 0.0f)
{
mat.color = new Color(mat.color.r, mat.color.g, mat.color.b, mat.color.a - (Time.deltaTime / time));
yield return null;
}
}


IEnumerator FadeIn(float time, Material mat)
{
//While we aren't fully visible, add some of the alpha colour
while (mat.color.a < 1.0f)
{
mat.color = new Color(mat.color.r, mat.color.g, mat.color.b, mat.color.a + (Time.deltaTime / time));
yield return null;
}
}


}

 

Thanks, I don't have much experience but I'll give it a try.

You have a little button for inserting code "properly" in the post's topbar window.
You may want to copy & paste your c# there.

Cheers

Did you have some time to take a closer look on this topic?

Hello @StefanK_93 , I did not had the time yet.
I may have some time this week.

Cheers!

 

It is silly question but does your console displaying any error message?

 

Yes like the ones you can see in the picture attached:

Yes like the ones you can see in the picture attached:

 

As you can see in the picture there is a warning message that says: No Fader object found on camera.

As I can see in the code that you posted you are searching the Fader object this way

m_Fader = GameObject.Find("Fader");

So I'm assuming that your "Fader" object is not called "Fader" in the hierarchy, is that the case?

 

I renamed the Fader to "Fader". Still doesn´t work.... Following errors occur:

 

Sorry for the late response, you solved the warning I was talking about.
