Hi guys!

If I set in Blender the object pivot to be in the corner of an object and rotate it from that point, in AppGameKit, why is it rotating from the middle of the object as origin point?

The pivot is as in the photo.

Thank you!

Perhaps your export operation in blender is centering the object before it saves out the file? Whatever the cause with the model itself, you can also optionally reset the center of the object to a new point like this in-code:



This will set the center of the object to a pivot point behind it by 5.0 units on Z by placing it ahead, then fixing its pivot. You can also set angles the same way for a different default rotation alignment.

That solution which is great, or, to just move the object in Blender a bit away from the world center axis

set object origin where u want it on the object then position the object at 0,0,0 before export. this is for individual objects. scenes can be exported as well but each object has to have its coords reset to zero inside agk but i believe they maintain their origin
