guLookAtStereoF [Function]

Function

guLookAtStereoF

Creates a viewing matrix (floating point)

Syntax

#include <ultra64.h>        /* gu.h */
void guLookAtStereoF(
        float mf[4][4],
        float xEye,
        float yEye,
        float zEye,
        float xAt,
        float yAt,
        float zAt,
        float xUp,
        float yUp,
        float zUp,
        float eyedist);

Arguments

mf

Matrix resulting from calculation

xEye

x-coordinate of viewpoint

yEye

y-coordinate of viewpoint

zEye

z-coordinate of viewpoint

xAt

x-coordinate of lookat point

yAt

y-coordinate of lookat point

zAt

z-coordinate of lookat point

xUp

x component of upward vector

yUp

y component of upward vector

zUp

z component of upward vector

eyedist

Distance from viewpoint to "eye"

* Positive value is for "right eye" and negative value is for "left eye"

Returned value

None

Description

Returns a viewing matrix for stereographics to mf. Fixed point can be handled with the guLookAtStereo function.

Note

Calling this function one time returns the matrix for one "eye," so you normally need to call this function twice, once for the "right eye" and once for the "left eye." Unlike guLookAt, with this function you need the distance from the viewpoint (xEye, yEye, zEye) to the lookat point (xAt, yAt, zAt). The lookat point must be specified as the focal point of both eyes.
