i''ve tried a few different ways, but i can''t seem to properly represent a tumbling die. I''m trying to recreate a version of the game Devil Dice just for fun and am having problems getting the dice to roll properly. here''s the basic setup. if you press an arrow key, the die then rolls 90 degrees on the axis you select. then you roll again and again etc, moving the die around a grid. i''m just storing an overall rotation value for the die for each axis and i know that wont work. I''m running into gimble lock and I''m way too confused about quaternions to use them. Can any of you guys suggest some different ways to deal with this problem? Would I do some calculation based on if a certain axis has gone past 180 degrees? What data would you store/update and how would can i overcome the dreaded gimble lock... Please help me obi-wan kenobi, you''re my only hope!

Thanks for the suggestion, but I''d really like to understand what I''m doing. Implementation without understanding is a big no-no in my books. I appreciate your offer to check your code though - open source projects are a great asset to the community.

Anyone else?
