Re: Woo HOO!! damn... | |

In Response To: Re: Woo HOO!! damn... (The MorningStar) : Bungie e-mailed Skav... lol - not quite. :) I got worried - and emailed Dave C. Here is his answer: The ring does indeed "spin", however, the model doesn't move, it's simply texture animation. If you are facing the ring in front of Threshold and the moon Basis is to your back, the ring appears to rotate counterclockwise. All other 'movement' is camera controlled. Of course, that only makes 'counterclockwise' the correct answer if you specify your point of reference; you could easily say "If you're facing the ring with both Threshold and Basis in front of you, the ring appears to rotate clockwise." As RR said. :) The thing is... Dave's point of reference is the most intuitive one (and the one you see most from the intro screen), so it's probably the one that should be used, ESPECIALLY if no point of reference was included by the answerer. I'm not trying to derail this contest - simply clarifying that it's not QUITE as simple as it was made out to be. I'll stand behind Skav/MorningStar's decision on the solution on this one... (like that matters :) ). |
