Hi everyone,
I managed to fix my last problem by using fixed camera positions (thanks for all your help btw http://www.opengl.org/discussion_boards/ubb/smile.gif). The next problem is to do with the origin of rotation. Normally it is fixed at the centre of my model and I use gluLookAt to allow you to zoom in and out and glRotate to let you spin the model.
e.g.
gluLookAt( 0.0f, 0.0f, -m_dZoom,
0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f,
0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
glRotatef(yRot, 1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
glRotatef(xRot, 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
The problem I have is that I want to be able to change the rotation origin to another place in my model at request. Can anyone help me with the code?
