Animation rotating on wrong axis.

by Tyler Slabinski · in Artist Corner · 11/22/2009 (11:17 pm) · 4 replies





For some reason, the end piece on my chaingun is rotating on the Z axis, when I want to rotate it on the Y axis. In Blender, I have rotated it on the correct axis, but when I load it into the DSQ, it does not seem to work.

Doesn't Blender have some "reversed" axis stuff on the go? I think it does ... eg when looking at the zx view (numpad1) your actually looking at the back and not the front.

Have a search for the info, and try http://jsgreenawalt.com, too. I can't remember where I saw it, it was aeons ago.

... actually it gets a mention in here www.narcissisticstudios.com/tutorials/pmodel.htm

Well I apparently failed this initiative test... I tried changing the axis to rotate on Z in Blender instead of X, and what happens? It rotates on Z in Showtool... I changed it back, and guess what? It was fixed...
