Need help on the orientations

Thu Jun 19, 2003 8:15 am by Wanderer

Does anyone have the coordinates for an upward facing orientation? I'm trying to place missile banks on a cruiser and all i've managed to do is one that is 45 degrees up and to the right/left. Any help would be appreciated.

I hope this helps:

rotate = 90, 0, 0

That's what I always use to get it to face up or down. But that's for a space object. I don't know if it can be used in weapons though.

Use the following for the first six values:

0.000000
1.000000
0.000000
-1.000000
0.000000
0.000000

Then fiddle with the last three, for the z axis, to point the gun upwards.
Sorry I couldnt be more help, ill post again if I can figure it out.

I'm already using those variables. Its the last 3 that are getting to me. I either make them face forward/backwards, left/right or that angle i mentioned. By the way, the cruiser i'm talking about uses a brand new model design. If anyone wants to test it, please email me. Its in ini format for the time being though.

Ok, talk to... crap, I can't find the name. I'm going to e-mail you a file that will calculate it out for you, but keep in mind that it's not mine and please don't post it on the Reactor! I've asked the author to do this, but he won't answer me
