Title: An8 format
Post by: Monex on May 27, 2008, 03:02:02 am

Hey
I'm trying to make a small program, but I have a little problem understand the numbers I marked:

(scene)
objectelement { "eobject02" "fisk"
    loc { (-409.33 10.499 83.389) }
    scale { 0.50000 }
    controller { "position"
      track {
        pointkey { 0 (-417.2 286.09 83.389) >>>(2.6247 -91.865 0)
          (-2.6247 91.865 0)<<< "S" }
        pointkey { 12 (-409.33 10.499 83.389) >>>(2.1811 -76.339 0)
          (-0.44362 15.526 0)<<< "S" }
       
      }
    }
  }

The spec is not up to date.The string is now used.

C:corner S:smooth T:step or threshold
Another point is added if T:step or threshold is used.

If you need the info,I think a cubic interpolation
curve is used.

The numbers in red are derivatives of the spline in the forward and backwards directions at that knot.

Thank for all the answers, I have found what my real problem was, my program wrote some numbers as 4,5 which should been 4.5. So I got fixed and the program is working :D
