requestanimationframe

So, I am doing an animation (Not on a website/webpage!), that uses Javascript . For the animation, I use requestAnimationFrame instead of setInterval , as setInterval did not work well enough for what I need. However, although requestAnimationFrame works well on decently powered devices, slow devices can't keep up with the standard 60 FPS, thereby slowing down the entire animation time. Is there a way I can make the animation work under a time frame, and have the FPS vary depending on how well it keeps up? Other ideas are welcome as well. (Note, I would really prefer not to post code, just

I am developing a game in JavaScript and I am confused on which one I should use - window.webkitRequestAnimationFrame or setInterval for moving my game characters. you can use window.webkitRequestAnimationFrame instead of setInterval var counter = 0; var requestAnimationFrame = window.requestAnimationFrame || window.webkitRequestAnimationFrame || window.mozRequestAnimationFrame || window.oRequestAnimationFrame || window.msRequestAnimationFrame; var cancelAnimationFrame = window.cancelAnimationFrame || window.webkitCancelRequestAnimationFrame || window.webkitCancelAnimationFrame || window

So I have written a working application (actually half of it) with requestAnimationFrame. Before the project gets too complex I'm rushing to rewrite it in an object-oriented style so we can implement plugins better (and also fix modules without changing the whole app). In fact the first version of the app was really messed up and made up from a lot of test code. So I have the following: Aventura.prototype.update = function() { var av = this; requestAnimationFrame(av.update); /* ... frame code ... */ }; And I get "Uncaught TypeError: Type error " in the console log, right in the

I'm currently experimenting with three.js, which relies on requestAnimationFrame to perform animations. Question: Wouldn't the following code result in infinite recursion before the cube rotations and renderer.render function invocation? function render() { requestAnimationFrame(render); cube.rotation.x += 0.1; cube.rotation.y += 0.1; renderer.render(scene, camera); } render(); The code works, but I'm trying to improve my overall understanding of javascript. The way I see it, is that render is invoked as a callback function. But does that mean that javascript continues running through the code

Closed. This question is off-topic . It is not currently accepting answers. Want to improve this question? Update the question so it's on-topic for Stack Overflow. Closed last month . Suppose I make changes to an element inside a frame created with window.requestAnimationFrame and that the modified element is being observed by a MutationObserver . Does the MutationOberserver 's change handler fire within the same frame and before the browser does rendering that comes after the frame? (I can imagine that this may not be true with some polyfills. I'm curious to know if there's any guarantee that

I have a chain of objects that looks like this: Game.world.update() I would like to use requestAnimationFrame to determine the framerate of this function. However when I implement it like this: World.prototype.update = function() { requestAnimationFrame(this.update); } The scope changes from the world object to the window object. How do I maintain the scope I want while calling requestAnimationFrame()? I know it has something to do with anonymous functions and such, but I can't get my head around it. Usual approach, works everywhere: World.prototype.update = function() { var self = this;

I'm having trouble running an animation. This is inside var ob1 = function() {}; . When called, it runs for a while and then I get the error Uncaught RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded . However, this same structure has no problems running outside of the object. /////////////// Render the scene /////////////// this.render = function (){ renderer.render(scene,camera); if(isControls == true) controls.update(clock.getDelta()); this.animate(); //console.log(true); requestAnimationFrame(this.render()); } /////////////// Update objects /////////////// this.animate = function (){ console
