Godot 4.2.1

I have spinning_top.glb aniamation which designed in blender, and iy is 3D animation but I want to shows it in 2D scene, my code and scene tree like below:

extends Node2D

# Load the GLB file as a PackedScene
var glb_scene:PackedScene = preload("res://spinning_top.glb")

# Create an instance of the scene
var glb_model:Node3D

# Create a new SubViewport
var sub_viewport = SubViewport.new()

func _ready():
	# Add the SubViewport to your scene
	add_child(sub_viewport)

	# Instantiate the 3D model
	glb_model = glb_scene.instantiate()

	# Add the model to the SubViewport
	sub_viewport.add_child(glb_model)

	# Translate the model
	glb_model.translate(Vector3(0.0, 0.0, -10.0))

	# Play the animation
	var animation_player = glb_model.get_node("AnimationPlayer")
	if animation_player != null:
		animation_player.play("ConeAction")

scene tree:

I missed what in there, project is work but I am not see spinning_top on 2D scene, any idea?

Here’s a demo about rendering 3D in a 2D scene godot-demo-projects/viewport/3d_in_2d at master · godotengine/godot-demo-projects · GitHub

By default the content of SubViewports is not displayed. If you put the SubViewport as child of a SubViewportContainer, then the SubViewportContainer displays the SubViewport content.

I try it but it is not shows my animation, just shows black shapes of object

5

I am not get it I will adding SubViewportContainer as child of SubViewport and adding animation in SubViewportContainer?

6

adding SubViewportContainer as child of SubViewport

No, the other way round. The scene tree should look like this:

  • Node2D
    • SubViewportContainer
      • SubViewport
        • glb_model

still not see I need adding OmniLight3D or DirectionalLight3D in for GLB?

8

Yes, but make an inherited scene from the glb (in Godot) and add lights in there. Then add your inherited scene under SubViewport.

ETA - Also needs an Environment.

I dont know how OmniLight3D or DirectionalLight3D related to animation, I adding them but sometimes object not shows sometimes shwos animation with shadow dark, by the way what is mean ETA, nad why I need an Environment?

ETA==Edited To Add

An Environment node will help with lighting. You can experiment.
