Please HELP (3d Rotation)

Hey guys,

I know there are a lot of brains out there. Please help me with this. I am trying to create a 3D - Navigation system using SIN and COS to create depth. I can get it to rotate about the Y axis just fine(left to right movements), but I am having trouble making it rotate around the X axis.

Also, after I get that, I planned to put them together to make it rotate around both X and Y axis based on mouse position.

.FLA is attached, feel free to use the code, thanks guys!

i can't download your file and making a new one is bugging me because i can't get it to work. i have posted twice on different things that you will need so read them and see if they will help:

depth of field:
http://www.flashkit.com/board/showth...hreadid=590887

rotation:
http://www.flashkit.com/board/showth...hreadid=596218

an important thing to remember is to first rotate about the one axis by using variables called newZ and newY (around x-axis) and then sub those values back into the variables for position and then repeat using newZ and newX (y-axis) before subbing in again. this is because the rotation equations rely on the original position in both dimensions so if you change one first it won't work

apparently when you download the file it removes the extension? Try to download it and rename it with a .fla extension

Thanks for the links

It is the space in the filename that causes these problems on FlashKit.

I would suggest getting in the habit of naming files without spaces when you upload them here.
