Instance Rotations

You're favorite scene... lol

No matter what I rotate (X, Y, or Z) he doesn't move. I'm guessing it's inheriting from the parent... location and scale can be set fine though.

    var Prt_f01_prt_dongsang_inst = 0;    BABYLON.SceneLoader.ImportMesh("", "../Models/Maps/", "prt_dongsang.babylon", scene,        function(mapZone, particleSystems, skeletons)        {            mapZone[0].visiblity=false;            mapZone[0].isVisible=false;            mapZone[0].name = "Prt_f01_prt_dongsang";            ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////            // Instance Copies            ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////            // 90 deg = 1.570796            Prt_f01_prt_dongsang_inst++;            objInstance = mapZone[0].createInstance("Prt_f01_prt_dongsang_inst_"+ Prt_f01_prt_dongsang_inst +"");            objInstance.visible = true;            objInstance.isVisible = true;            objInstance.position = new BABYLON.Vector3(-101.492996, 2.988000, -19.001993);            objInstance.scaling = new BABYLON.Vector3(0.001, 0.001, 0.001);            objInstance.rotation = new BABYLON.Vector3(1.570796, 1.570796, 1.570796);        }    );

This is because your object is produced from 3dsmax which use mesh.rotationQuaternion instead of mesh.rotation.

 

So you have many options:

- Go to babylon properties of your scene in max and uncheck "export rotations as quaternion"

- Use mesh.rotate functino

- Set mesh.rotationQuaternion to null

Didn't think about that.... quick and easy fix is always best.
