So, im trying to create a triangle that can move around on a quad... fLook is his heading, 0.0f - 360.0f, and this is where i want him too point when i move the mouse (incressed/decressed when moving the mouse ;)) if i dont move him he stands in the middle of the quad, and the rotation works perfect, but, as i move him forward/backwards he starts to rotate in a circle around the center of the quad... thanks for reading... <CODE> g_Me.GetPos(unit); g_Me.GetHeading(fLook); glRotatef(fLook, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f); glBegin(GL_TRIANGLES); glColor3f(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f); glVertex3f( 0.0f + unit.fX, 0.1f + unit.fY, 0.1f + unit.fZ); glColor3f(1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f); glVertex3f(-0.1f + unit.fX,-0.1f + unit.fY, 0.1f + unit.fZ); glVertex3f( 0.1f + unit.fX,-0.1f + unit.fY, 0.1f + unit.fZ); glEnd(); glLoadIdentity (); glTranslatef (0.0f, 0.0f, -7.0f); glBegin(GL_QUADS); glColor3f(1.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f); glVertex3f( 2.0f, 2.0f, 0.0f); glVertex3f(-2.0f, 2.0f, 0.0f); glVertex3f(-2.0f,-2.0f, 0.0f); glVertex3f( 2.0f,-2.0f, 0.0f); glEnd(); </CODE>

Try translating him back to the origin, rotating him, then translating him to the new position.

glTranslate to that point,
glPushMatrix,
glRotate, (you offset in the vert cords, move thsoe to the glTranslate)
