[2:01:36][Q&A][:speech]
2017-12-06 22:26:13 +00:00
[2:02:07][@aceflameseer][Sorry for being a dummy: In the camera transform in 3D games (as far as I've been watching tutorials), there's something called an "Up" vector. What's the purpose of it and do we have it in Handmade Hero? Since it's a 2D game I guess it's different. Your explanations have been wonderful and I would love it if you could explain it. And also thanks for doing EU friendly streams Kappa]
[2:03:44][Blackboard: Object- vs Camera Transform]
[2:06:58][Blackboard: Up Vector]
[2:09:37][Blackboard: Constructing a camera transform without already having the camera object itself]
[2:18:16][Blackboard: "Sense of Up" vector]
[2:23:20][Blackboard: Look-at matrix / camera equations]
[2:24:36][@aceflameseer][Wow, that was amazing, thanks a lot!]
[2:24:47][@pileopoop][Would it be weird to change the focal length as the pitch changes or should the focal length always stay constant?]
[2:25:47][@sahfortv][Minor point, you called your variables pitch and orbit: Should probably be pitch and yaw]
