Cam rotation - invert Y axe (aka inverted Mouselook)

Heapfree · 01-23-2011 11:49 PM

Hello there.

I've tried the "3D" Tutorial, and there seems to be an easy way to handle camera rotation with the "CAMH_ROT" flag with function CamHandle.

Is there an also easy way to invert the Y axe when yousing this method?
(so when moving mouse up, the camera is looking down...et vice versa)

If that's not possible with "CamHandle", how would i accomplish the same procedur with "Camera" and "Cam" ?

I've tried to search all threads to no avail...wondering that this hasn't been asked yet.

Thank you in advance!

EDIT: ok i've found a way in those advanced tutorials.
in "Geometry/Camera.cpp" there is an example showing how to handle the camera "manually".

i guess that would be the way to go and leave CamHandle alone (would need the source code to modify it/add an additional "invert" flag).

just negate the delta?

Code:

dy =Ms.d().y*-1.7f;

instead of

Code:

dy =Ms.d().y*1.7f;

something like that work for you?

Code:

Cam.pitch-=Ms.d().y;

or like that, it all depends what how you implemented the camera
