Hello... It''s me again... *g* I have made a little progress ... I am moving my great super triangle around... *s* I am using Transaltion Matrices and Rotation Matrices and everything is working just fine... But now there is something like collision tests. For Example I don''t want my camera to drop beneath the x-y-plane. That mean the the z-part of my KameraVector must not be negative... But how do I find out, with only the ViewMatrix, which is the Kameravektor. Is there any function I have overlooked? Is there something similar for the Upvector and viewpoint? Taggi

Thanks, but how do I access the single Members of a D3DXMATRIX-object?

Even in your Cameraclass you have to track your CameraPosition
