Our lessons on webgl are continuing. Today we start another topic where we will be working with sprites and texture animation. If you do not know, sprites are simply images, that could be attached to objects. These sprite images are always orthogonal to our camera. Three.js provides a special material for the sprites – THREE.SpriteMaterial, as well as a special object – THREE.Sprite. Also in this tutorial we will learn how to play the animation using sprites.
