Earings

Description

Attaching physics objects to an animated model, and making the head follow the mouse.

To make the head follow the mouse, we choose a bone to control. In this case it was mixamorigNeck.

When the mouse moves across the screen, we can convert its clientX and clientY to a lookAt point and then make the bone look at that point. See the onMouseMove function.

We can also attach meshes to bones. In this example, there are meshes added to the headBone. They are offset the headBone by some amount.

Also, several more CANNON.Spheres were added to the scene, and constraints added to them to keep them a certain distance from one another in a certain order. They then hang in place as a chain, and this simulates earings.

The code also contains several comments to read.
