Recommendation for resource into HEAD

by Stephen Zepp · in Torque Game Engine · 07/08/2004 (6:13 am) · 2 replies

I recently implemented the GuiObjectView code provided in This Resource, and it patched in with just about zero problems or issues, and provided exactly what I was looking for.

While I know that the GuiPlayerView is already in place, according to the forums it's pretty hard coded in some ways and not particularly useful.

I would suggest that this resource be reviewed for inclusion in HEAD, and made directly available without having to find it and manually patch it in.

Addendum: the setCamera console method listed in the resource comments is a very nice part of the functionality, and should be included as well, IMO. I'd suggest the usage indicate that the first 3 params to the method call are rotation transforms, not actual camera coords--this might be obvious to some, but it did throw me for a loop for a bit. Something like replacing x,y,z with x.rot, y.rot, z.rot would have cleared it up for me right off the bat.
