Thread: tl-engine Matrices HELP!

Hi everyone,

Im a complete newbie to C++.
Im would like to know what the Matrices script is to rotate a 3d character us the TL-Engine.

This is the script that i have used so far it it helps.

Code:

// quake.cpp: A program using the TL-Engine

#include <TL-Engine.h>    // TL-Engine include file and namespace
using namespace tle;

//--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

void main()
{
    // Create a 3D engine (using Irrlicht engine here) and open a window for it
    I3DEngine* myEngine = New3DEngine( kIrrlicht );
    myEngine->StartWindowed(1284, 768);

    // Add default folder for meshes and other media
    myEngine->AddMediaFolder( "C:\\Users\\tecmeister\\Documents\\TL-Engine\\Media" );

//--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    /**** Set up your scene here ****/

//--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    //quake map
    IMesh* quakeMesh;
    IModel* quake;

//---------------------------------

    // marine player
    IMesh* playerMesh;
    IModel* player;

//---------------------------------

    // key press movement
    bool KeyHit( EKeyCode );
    bool KeyHeld( EKeyCode );

//---------------------------------

    // place the quake map into the game
    quakeMesh = myEngine->LoadMesh( "Quake3Level.pk3" );
    quake = quakeMesh->CreateModel();

//---------------------------------------------------------

    playerMesh = myEngine->LoadMesh( "Marine.md2" );
    player = playerMesh->CreateModel(1400, 88, 1350);

//---------------------------------------------------------

    ICamera* myCamera;
    myCamera = myEngine->CreateCamera(kFPS);

//---------------------------------------------------------


    // The main game loop, repeat until engine is stopped
    while (myEngine->IsRunning())
    {
        // Draw the scene
        myEngine->DrawScene();

//---------------------------------------------------------

        /**** Update your scene each frame here ****/

//---------------------------------------------------------

        if(myEngine->KeyHit(Key_Escape))
        {
            myEngine->Stop();
        }
        if(myEngine->KeyHeld( Key_W ))
        {
            player->MoveLocalZ(1);
        }
        if(myEngine->KeyHeld( Key_S ))
        {
            player->MoveLocalZ(-1);
        }
        if(myEngine->KeyHeld( Key_D ))
        {
            player->MoveLocalX(1);
        }
        if(myEngine->KeyHeld( Key_A ))
        {
            player->MoveLocalX(-1);
        }

//------------------------------------------------------

    }

    // Delete the 3D engine now we are finished with it
    myEngine->Delete();
}

//-------------------------------------------------------

Thanks for your help.
