Hi there, I am having some trouble rotating my "X" model. here is the setup for my guy.

+ Code Snippet

dbLoadImage("Media/People/scifi/ai_2_D2.dds", 87 );//Texture  file path
int obj = 1;
dbLoadObject ( "Media/People/scifi/AI.x", obj );//Object file path
dbScaleObject ( obj, 100, 100, 100 );//Object size
dbPositionObject( obj, 350, 0, 509);// Plane position
dbYRotateObject( obj, 90 );//Rotate
dbTextureObject ( 1, 87 ); //Texture object
//

And here is my camera setup.

+ Code Snippet

		dbRotateObject( 1, 0,ya,0 );
		x=dbObjectPositionX(1);
		y=dbObjectPositionY(1);
		z=dbObjectPositionZ(1);
        dbPrint(dbObjectPositionX(1));
		angle=dbObjectAngleY(1)+an;
	    distance=160.0; 
	    height=80.0 ;
		smooth=15.0;
	    dbSetCameraToFollow( x,y,z,angle,distance,height,smooth,1);//a

Edit: Sorry should explain more. My model is facing tawards me(camera),
I have changed and adjusted it every way i can think of. It will not face the other way no matter what i do.

I'm not quite sure if that's what you're after but you should try:

+ Code Snippet

dbYRotateObject( dbObjectAngleY(obj) + 180 );
dbFixObjectPivot( obj );

Do this once after loading the model.
That tells it to take then new y angle 180 as angle 0, so it will be turned around.

Now the plot thickens, the fps decreases, and the awesomeness goes through the roof.
