topic says it all, this problem has been nagging me, it wasnt a problem before because I never placed objects using two vertices before but now i have to... so question is, how do I avoid this flip with the angles?

Ive heard i can use 3 vertices but whats the theory behind it ?


thanks in advance =]

How are you placing the objects and what for? A player weapon or held object? I would try doing it with bones if possible, that fixed my issue when I ran into this same problem a while back. But again, different games mean different solutions.

I never had the problem before because I only used bones but thats out of the question for this scenario, i'm placing a weapon, I also cant place it in the MDL itself so solving this is my only option;

I use ang_for_bone to avoid that problem

i cant use bones.....

look for Widi's Code Example with 3 vec_for_vertex. I did not read all, but maybe it can help you.
