userlib problem
Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Userlibs/userlib problem
| ||
| hi all im trying to make a userlib and trying to access the rotation of a entity in my dll and get the angle but i can't convert it into degrees can anyone help? example: this is how i get the angles Peekf(entity+48) Peekf(entity+52) Peekf(entity+56) Peekf(entity+60) |
| ||
| Hi sorry, Peekf is for Peek a float from a bank? (PeekFloat(bank,offset)) what is entity? I supose that 48, 52, 56, 60 are offsets in a structure with elements of 4 bytes in size, but I can't realize what is all about! should you explain further? Juan |
| ||
| Im trying to access blitz3ds entity rotation from purebasic to make a userlib i no that the offset of 48 52 56 60 are the angles but it dones not return them in degrees and im trying to convert them in to degrees and i was hoping someone would no how to do this. |

| should be floats? or no idea? does you have any technical documentation? Juan |
| ||
| I believe blitz stores rotations in quaternians. |
| ||
| well, then there all 4 are floats! see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quaternions_and_spatial_rotation and have a nice day (or headache!) Juan |

| See Blitz3D entity structure HERE Quaternion saved at $30 (hex) disp. And other structures here — http://blitz.pp.ru/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=203 Some data can not coincide with B3D 1.99, these tables are made for old version Blitz3D ! |
| ||
| Great info ($30 = 48 as Spike says) thank's for the link, the names of the gifs ara so clear (not the rest, I speak Spanish )! Juan |
| ||
| @Odriozola Almeida: And I speak in Russian, it has not prevented to make to me the given tables :P |
