Left-Handed or Right?
« on: April 24, 2013, 11:40:16 pm »


               As I am still working on the 128 models I mentioned in the silly little tools thread I find I need to ask this question. I need to perform a couple of simple transformations on the vertices contained in them Due to the sheer number I will be writing a small utility to do the job. Because it could have an impact on how I implement it, I need to ask the following question.

Does NwN use a left-handed or a right-handed coordinate system. By this I am trying to determine where the origin (ie 0, 0, 0) is situated. In a left-handed coordinate system the origin is in the bottom left-hand corner whereas it is in the top-left corner in a right-handed coordinate system. I didn't come up with the names by the way, I got them from one of my reference books.
