3D Objective Marker

[MILTON]

Hello!

I have been racking my mind on how to get a 3D Objective marker.

Similar to in Chivalry: Medieval Warfare where a marker hovers over the objective position that works as a waypoint.

Any ideas?

there are 2 basic thoughts behind markers. 3d ones and 2d ones. 2d’s are simply drawn on the screen (i.e. GUITexture and GUIText) to simply draw (on the screen) where it should be in the world.) this is easily done using WorldToScreenPoint and simply putting the GUITexture and text in its proper space (0 to 1 x and y)

Unity - Scripting API: Camera.WorldToScreenPoint

3d versions of this require 3dtext and fonts (perhaps a bit more complicated but you get the picture)
