[hlcoders] Flight controls problem

One of my students is writing this email out about a problem they are having. Any help would be greatly appreciated. We are looking to replace the player with an aircraft model. We changed the mouse controls to affect the pitch and roll, rather then the pitch and yaw. the mousex is affecting

Re: [hlcoders] Flight controls problem

I think that the more rolled toward 90 degrees on side you are the more yaw will need to adjusted versus pitch since to the game each axis of the angle is independent of each other. Chris -Original Message- From: hlcoders-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com

My students are asking... Where would I apply this matrix translation? Im currently just using setabsangle(qangle) --- On Fri, 2/27/09, Julian Moschüring ar...@gmx.com wrote: From: Julian Moschüring ar...@gmx.com Subject: Re: [hlcoders] Flight controls problem To: Discussion of Half-Life

Re: [hlcoders] Flight controls problem

Instead of doing angle.x/y/z += value you need to instead compute a rotation matrix and then multiply it with the current angle and set that to the new angle. Chris -Original Message- From: hlcoders-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlcoders-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf

Re: [hlcoders] Flight controls problem

Our math library has functions for converting to/from QAngle and a matrix (use matrix3x4_t for a standard rotation + translation). So you'd do something like: matrix3x4_t currentRotation, incrementalRotation, nextRotation; QAngle angles = GetAbsAngle(); AngleMatrix( angles, currentRotation );
