I'm trying to make random rotation of random placed box.... the random
fonction works with" translate" but rotate doesn't seem to work... why ?
The code :
// Essai sur les macros...
#declare kub = box {<-0.1, -0.1, -0.1><0.1, 0.1, 0.1>
texture {
pigment {color rgb <0.5, 0.0, 0.5>}
finish {ambient 0.3
diffuse 0.5
reflection {0.0, 1 fresnel on}}
}
}
light_source {
<10, 5, -10>
color rgb 1
}
#declare R1 = seed(360);
// 1 unit random moving
#declare R3 = seed(1);
#declare i = 0;
#while (i < 2001)
object {kub translate <rand(R3), rand(R3), rand(R3)> rotate <rand(R1),
rand(R1), rand(R1)>}
#declare i = i + 1;
#end
camera {
location <3, 0, 0>
look_at <0, 0, 0>
}

What exactly do you mean by "does not work"?
Remember, rotations always occur around <0,0,0>

Parameter of seed has nothing to do with angle.
360 should be placed here:
> rotate <rand(R1),>rand(R1), rand(R1)>}
rotate 360*<rand(R1),rand(R1), rand(R1)>

Hi,
seed is just an initialisation of the random-number-generator.
to create a random number use following structure:
#local R1 = seed(45345);
// the number has no further meaning. you may use anything
// note that different randoms generated from the same seed value, produce
synchronously the same numbers
#local random = rand(R1);
// this is the actual random number
// to rotate something you may use:
// rotate <rand(R1), rand(R1), rand(R1)>
regards

rand produces numbers between 0 and 1 so you are basically rotating between
0 and 1 degree.
Try this:
rotate<rand(R1)*360, rand(R1)*360, rand(R1)*360>

Hi again,

Errr.. I forgot: rand returns a float in range of 0..1, so you should rather
use
> // rotate <360*rand(R1), 360*rand(R1), 360*rand(R1)>
Sorry.

Or even better:
rotate 360*< rand(R1), rand(R1), rand(R1)>

Note that this does not achieve *any* possible orientation the object can
have. For example, I think that it can never reach an orientation like
caused by
rotate y*30 rotate x*30
In order to really achieve almost any possible orientation, that random
rotation should be applied several times. Perhaps even a random number of
times. For example:
#declare RotTimes = 5+5*rand(R1); // from 5 to 10 times.
#declare Ind = 0;
#while(Ind < RotTimes)
rotate 360*<rand(R1),rand(R1),rand(R1)>
#declare Ind = Ind+1;
#end

I think a better way would just be to generate a random point on the
surface of a sphere (using VRandOnSphere()) and use the PointAtTrans()
macro. Probably should rotate by a random amount around the y axis first.

I believe all orientations are covered by just
rotate 360*<rand(R1),rand(R2),rand(R3)>
I'm pretty sure that takes care of all orientations. Whether or not they're
all equally likely is another question.
(Here's why I think that covers everything. Just the point <1,0,0> around
the y axis and then around the z axis randomly gives it the possibility of
pointing in any possible direction. If you're working with an object, and
you rotate it around the x axis, you sort of spin it in any possible
orientation. Then rotating it around the y and z axis like you did with the
point makes it point in a random direction.)
