I am interested to know if anyone knows of any good books or articles that discuss data structures for heirarchical models. I have "3D Games, Volume 1 : Real-time Rendering and Software Technology." It has a brief discussion. I was hoping to get a look at other approaches or more detailed descriptions. Thanks, -Joe Just Some Dude

Well, it seems to me that storing such a model would involve something like the following:

  
struct model
{
     Triangle * data;
     Point    * origin;
     Rotation * rotation;
     Model    * model;
};

Where origin[n] and rotation[n] are the origin and rotation of sub-model model[n]
