- Creates a camera entity and returns its handle.
<br />
-
<br />
- Without at least one camera, you won't be able to see anything in your 3D world. With more than one camera, you will be to achieve effect such as split-screen modes and rear-view mirrors.
<br />
-
<br />
- A camera can only render to the backbuffer. If you wish to display 3D graphics on an image or a texture then copy the contents of the backbuffer to the appropriate buffer.
<br />
-
<br />
- The optional parent parameter allow you to specify a parent entity for the camera so that when the parent is moved the child camera will move with it. However, this relationship is one way; applying movement commands to the child will not affect the parent.
<br />
-
<br />
- Specifying a parent entity will still result in the camera being created at position 0,0,0 rather than at the parent entity's position.
