Just wondering,

Has anyone played the game Command & Conquer Renegade.
This is a game I am trying to recreate with Irrlicht.
I was wondering what type of mesh you should use for complicated
terrain such as cliffs, mountains, etc since you cant have holes in terrain
for caves and stuff.

Should I ...

matrix4 trans = gun->getAbsoluteTransformation();
vector3df rotation = trans.getRotationDegrees();
(void)printf("%f %f %f\n", rotation.X, rotation.Y, rotation.Z);



I have used this method before.
But when I use the rotation vector and set the bullet being shot to the same direction as ...

Im still having a problem.

Node is a gun attached to the camera.



matrix4 trans = node->getAbsoluteTranslation();
vector3f v = trans.getRotationDegress();
bullet-setRotation(v);


v should give me the rotation of the gun.
I need the rotation so I can shoot a bullet and use the rotation
as the ...
