Hey Quark, does your library support Billboarding? i believe it doesnt, right? this is a feature i miss so much recently. So if you ever have some time and want to add some more features i believe this is something alot of people could need, especially in games too


No it doesn't and I absolutely agree this would be a useful feature!  Wink

The next version of the library is ready but I just want to create a couple of examples before I release it.

When creating the shapes in the current version they are centred on (0,0,0) which is then used as the centre of rotation also the 'up' direction is always (0,1,0). The new version enables the user to add 2 more parameters to the shapes constructor that enables user defined centre of rotation and user defined 'up' axis.

I always intended to include billboarding so after this release I will make it a priority for the following release.

Hi Cedric

You beat me to it with such a quick response, I have also responded on the Exhibition forum saying why I have posted these here.

Basically I felt that the Exhibition thread was for people to demonstrate their sketches and this would be a more appropriate forum for discussing the libraries in detail.
