Wrong HP rotations in HardCMP?

Thu Nov 03, 2005 2:19 pm by Manhattan_Guy

To make it short: I am creating a new damage point with the rotation -89, -89, 66, but HardCMP always changes it back to -1, -89, -22 when I load the model next time.

Any ideas?

Just edit the hardpoints with UTF Editor instead of HardCMP

Yeah, it's "just" that I don't know what to calculate in order to get the quite a bit more complex values the UTF Editor uses.

Um... basically... HardCMP calculates the angles when you input things the first time, and then reads that information back again, converting to degrees/radians again. So, it may look wrong, but it's not- it's just a different way of viewing the same angles, in most cases.

Well, as I was setting up damage points, I can say it certainly WAS wrong, for the destroyed wing, that was supposed to be set onto the point didn't have the right orientation.

I then used UTF Edit to copy the orientation data and paste it into my new one, which is basically an old ship with a new pair of wings, so I can use the exisiting damage points. Now it works.
