World rotation

Could anyone help me to find the world rotation of a child node?
Thanks in advance

there is no such thing

But you can use core::matrix4 node->getAbsoluteTransformation() if you need access to that.

Oops!, thanks
After reading your post, I found in the manual:

virtual const core::vector3df& irr::scene::ISceneNode::getRotation ( ) const [inline, virtual]

Gets the rotation of the node relative to its parent.

Note that this is the relative rotation of the node. If you want the absolute rotation, use getAbsoluteTransformation().getRotation()
