Instead of transforming, and then "back transforming" to get to the original point, save the matrix with glPushMatrix, do the transformation, and then restore the matrix with glPopMatrix.

  void DrawMine(int x, int y, int z, int xrot, int yrot, int zrot){{   glPushMatrix();   glTranslatef(x, y, z);   glRotatef(xrot, 1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);   glRotatef(yrot, 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);   glRotatef(zrot, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);   triangle.DrawTriangle();   glPopMatrix();}

one more thing for future reference

you guys didnt tell me that when you want to "un-rotate" something you have to do it in opposite to the order you rotated

i.e.

  glRotatef(xrot, 1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);glRotatef(yrot, 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);......glRotatef(-yrot, 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);glRotatef(-xrot, 1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);the tornado effect still took place until i realized I had to do this
