I've got some problems with RB3D projects I've downloaded from the net.
Every second project I launch doesn't show anything at all. I have
to change the camera-stuff (x, y, z), then it works.
Question: I can't think of open source authors posting RB3D stuff
with wrong camera settings - so, could it be possible that this
depends on the OS or maybe on QD or Quesa?
No. Rather, the original version of RB3D (when it was an independent
plugin, rather than part of REALbasic) had the camera facing the
opposite way by default. So old projects you may find here and there
will have the camera facing exactly the wrong direction if they
haven't been updated.
To fix them, find where the camera is set up, and add:
Rb3DSpace1.camera.Yaw 3.14157
(or whatever the camera is called in that case). That should do it.
Cheers,
