Need help: 3D polygon engine

Post by Not Give » Thu, 09 Jan 1997 04:00:00



I was wondering if anyone could tell me some equations for 3D polygon
rotation.  If you know of a faq tell me where to find it or send it to me.
All I currently have is the equation to rotate a polygon through the
z-axis.  Thank you.  Post a reply or , if you can, E-mail me at

rotate a poligon? You mean rotate it's points?

to rotate points use this matrix...

to rotate over the X

1 0 0
0 cos -sin
0 sin cos

to rotate over the Y

cos 0 sin
0 1 0
-sin 0 cos

to rotate over the Z

cos -sin 0
sin cos 0
0 0 1

hope i've helped...

  I am in need of a proffessional 3D polygon engine... if anyone can recommend or provide me with one, I
would be in great appreciation...  Commercial, shareware, freeware etc... are all welcome.

  If anyone has any experience with any of the polygon engines available out there, I would be thankfull if
you can share your experience with me (ie. limitations of the engine, recommend or not)...
