Hey Tony the problem here (as you've spotted) is a long running bug in the Away3d rotation properties. I've no idea why this wasn't picked up before but there you go
essentially, transform updates were always reset by rotation property updates. transform updates are not just confined to the transform property, but also lookAt, rotate and.. you've guessed it, pitch roll and yaw so to get the same behaviour as the one you had, you need to manually reset the rotation properties when you rotate an object so replace the line: bugLoader.handle.rotationY = +(klingAngle+90); // this would reset with bugLoader.handle.rotateTo(0, klingAngle+90, 0) rotateTo() is a new method designed to combat these new problems. Apologies for people who may have to adjust their apps because of this, but rest assured that the rotation properties are actually working correctly now! atb Rob On Fri, Oct 24, 2008 at 4:31 AM, mogg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Rob, > > I complied with the latest trunk and here is the result: > http://www.directresponsemedicine.com/flexsandbox/goosuc2/ (now I have > a dancing klingon ship :) > > //The following is the code section doing the work every frame: > //MD2still > klingonLoader.handle.rotationY = +(klingAngle+90); // this would > reset any previous roll and adjust the angle > klingonLoader.handle.roll(30); // this would roll 30 degrees as > expected > //animated MD2 > bugLoader.handle.rotationY = +(klingAngle+90); // this would reset > any previous roll and adjust the angle > bugLoader.handle.roll(30); // this would roll 30 degrees as expected > > http://www.directresponsemedicine.com/flexsandbox/goosuc/ (expected > good behavior) > > Thanks in advance, > > Tony > > > > > On Oct 22, 8:50 pm, mogg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Rob, > > > > Thank you.
