Closecamera | The camera with the view frustum that you want to calculate planes from. |
Plane[] The planes that form the camera's view frustum.
Calculates frustum planes.
This function takes the given camera's view frustum and returns six planes that form it.
Ordering: [0] = Left, [1] = Right, [2] = Down, [3] = Up, [4] = Near, [5] = Far

planes | An array of 6 Planes that will be overwritten with the calculated plane values. |
Calculates frustum planes.
This function takes the given camera's view frustum and returns six planes that form it. This is similar to the previous overload, except that instead of allocating a new array for the calculated planes, the function will use an array that you have provided. This array must always be exactly of length 6.
Ordering: [0] = Left, [1] = Right, [2] = Down, [3] = Up, [4] = Near, [5] = Far

worldToProjectionMatrix | A matrix that transforms from world space to projection space, from which the planes will be calculated. |
Plane[] The planes that enclose the projection space described by the matrix.
Calculates frustum planes.
This function returns six planes of a frustum defined by the given view & projection matrix.
