XNA project progress...

Quick update on my XNA project (problems with short attention span?)

• side tracked to look at different modelling program
• side tracked to look at Google's 3D ware house
• played with Sketchup
• side tracked to look at Google MAP API, KML
• finally found a model I wanted, and converted to the format XNA likes
• diddling with XNA's 3D rotations
• learned what a Gimbal Lock is (doh!)
• learned more about quaternion and how to use it

Finally, at this point, have a model that rotates (yaw, pitch and roll) on its own axis. I think it's time to polish up that Linear Algebra book from last millenium...
