A couple of quick notes: Regarding the gfx_get_path() function (old question). That's not a bug. It was just a misunderstanding. When I read "GFX_3DS_PATH" I was thinking of being able to get 3D Studio's "root" path. The function (as the name implies) returns the current ".3DS" mesh file path (the directory you read a 3DS file last from). The open issue in this case is the lack of a parameter that would return 3D Studio's "root" dir. This is very important if I need to read either 3DS.SET or 3DSNET.SET. Regarding the quartenian ordeal I had a while ago. All the information I needed was in a book called "3D Computer Animation" by John Vince. This book is published by Addison-Wesley. That's where I found the discussion about using quartenians for rotation and lots of other useful tidbits of information. The quartenian (and rotation) text fully explains items #28 and #12. It partially explains #6. If John hasn't solved his memory problem I could take a look at it as I have some idea what could be causing (lack of sleep? <g>)
