[1.8]Rotating TileEntity

[PeterRDevries]

I've been trying and fiddling around with these Fing numbers

But I can't seem to figure it out, this is my Tilentity renderer code that rotates a disc but it's well not rotating correctly:

 

 

Thanks in advance, I've really been trying hard to figure this out myself I know it has to do with some calculate stuff but I just can't figure it out,

 

I've googled on everything and tried everything, i'm desperate.

Ok.  You have a few problems. One is not understanding how translate and rotate interact.  Rotation always happens around the origin.

 

Secondly, you haven't used the parent/child feature of ModelBase, allowing you to simplify the math by rotating the parent rather than the object directly.

 

And oh yeah, thirdly.

 

You can rotate the boxes directly without using glRotate.

Hi thanks for your reply,

 

Yes I knew rotation happens around the origin, but I've managed to shift it in a weird hacky way before using calculation to edit the translation... which was more work then it should be.

 

How should I go on to rotate the model then? Should I use something like the setRotationAngles function? or how should I tackle this?
