Hey guys got a question about max's default Angle.

Your view is top down 2d.

If I have an image "A" where the top of that letter 'A' is the 'front' and the bottom of A is the back.

When I load that image into max will max display it as 'A' and upright A or will it be an A as though it were turned 90 degrees to the right by default?

what I mean is, my images should be:

and NOT

The default would be as if you threw the image onscreen as is, with no rotation, as it appeared in the art package, so you'll have to adjust by 90 degrees or rotate your source image.

yup my new art has all been rotated to have their front facing right or 90. thanks.

in a few years i can say why i even had to ask.

It's usually the simple stuff that throws me too :)
