Character.rotation value

[guillaume76290]

Hi.
I was reading memory at (basePlayer + 0x7A. It's rotation's adress. I need this value to rotate my character on the right direction to go to the next waypoint. So i had read this value, but the value is a very high number. For example, i read 1084651243. This value change if I turn my character. Is it normal that the value is so high ?
EDIT : this value is 1023482392 at minimal and 1086897435 at maximal
Thank you !

Its a float. It is represented in a totally diffrent way in memory than an integer.

Hum ... I think i found something. Say me if it is false
The difference between maxi and mini is 63 415 043. If I do :
(63 415 043 / 10 000 000) / pi I have 2.01.......... So in a trigonometric circle, the complet circle is 2 * Pi. I think it is that i have to do if I want yo use the value rotation ...
Is it true ? Thank you !!!

Omg it's a float ...

[guillaume76290]

Ho thank you ggg898 !!! I have now a value with mini = 0 and maxi = 6 !!!
Thank you !!!

Stop thinking.

Read it as a float as I previously said. The float value is in radians.

Doesn't WoW rotate the world from the "normal" representation (where 0 rads would be east, 1/2 rad north, and so on)?

Just trying to forestall the next question...

[ggg898]

Well, the coordinate system is orientated a little bit different, but is a left handed orto system. As I see it myself, Y points "north", X points "west" and Z up. Rotation is ccw around z axis (if i remeber correctly from doing the nav mesh tool)

North is 0 east is 90 south is 180 degrees etc

I've never seen converting an integer-read-float into a float in such a great way. Awesome.

Pffft... should see how I read floats with Marshal
