They are unit vectors in world space that represent the view of the player.
So the forward vector is the unit vector for the line straight out from the
players view, up is up for the player view, etc.

So you were half right but I think you confused yourself by thinking too
hard ;)

I was wondering if anybody could give me an explanation of what each of
these were? My original thought was that they must just divide the view
angle up into forward/up/right components, but then why are they each
vectors and not a vector in total? (each one being x/y/z of the view?). Also
are they relative to the world or to the player? Or am i totally wrong?


Any help appreciated
