Hi ..
I'm trying to achieve a simple effect with an exported blender object where I want it to rotate about an axis (simple animation). I've tried using a simple thread to update the rotation parameters every few millisecs and it seems to hang the code. Is there any other way to do it ?

thanks in advance

Put this right after your call to sio2ResourceRender:

my_object->_SIO2transform->rot->x += 2.0;
sio2TransformBindMatrix( my_object->_SIO2transform );

(where my_object is the name of your object and x is the axis to rotate on)


Best,

Actually it should be called before, so you'll get the current rotation for the frame, putting it after will cause the rotation to be affected the next frame. That might cause problem if you are using physic or other time critical / variable critical operations.

Awesome ... that worked great !! I just made a small mod to your suggestion .. same concept

_SIO2object->rot->x += 2.0;
sio2ObjectBindMatrix( _SIO2object);
