rotations are set using quaternions. the first 3 are the x, y, z values of the axis vector, the last is the angle in radians of the rotation on that axis. google up the theory behind 3d vectors to clear up any questions on that part wink.gif

ok ok lemme say it a little slower for you....
 the last is the angle  
in radians  
of the rotation
on that axis


it can also be said like

the last is the angle
of the rotation

radians are a unit of measurement.
I think all the prepositional phrases threw you off a little. but like gas said...

well from what ive always thought, ^^ its sorta the same.

What I ment by rotation point was more along the lines of where it's at on the arch.
anywho it's all cleared up now tongue.gif
