Minimesh.GetRotation

[newborn]

Before I submit this as a bug, I would like at least 1 confirmation.

Lets say that I build the matrix out of landscape normals and apply it to minimesh:

for i as integer = 0 to 100
  Minimesh.SetMatrix(i, GetMatrixFromLandscapePoint(x,z))
next

As you can see in the following screenie, it works:





Now, the problem I get is if I try to get the rotation values from that minimesh, it always return 0.

for i as integer = 0 to 100
  vRotation = Minimesh.GetRotation(i)
  Minimesh.SetRotation(i, vRotation)
next

As seen in the following screenie, all rotation values are set to zero:





Correct me if I'm wrong, but after applying a matrix to a mesh/minimesh, shouldn't the rotation be updated as well?

I think this is connected to the fact that you can only use SetMatrix OR SetRotation, so a workaroung would be to use the mathlibrary and grab the rotation from the matrix.

That's interesting WEst, didn't know that...

I'm digging throught TVMath, can't find which method you're talking about. Is there something like GetRotationFromMatrix?

[WEst]

There should be something like TVEulerAnglesFromMatrix.

Yep, found it! Darn thing returns (0,0,0) as angle... but I'll work on it!

Thanks WEst!
