3.0 camera rotated incorrectly on firefox dev edition on windows

It seems to be okay in 3.1.0, but that's been giving me other problems, so im wondering if i can find a fix in 3.0.7.

Is there some other way I need to set the rotation? If it renders correctly, it looks like:

 

In the playground in FF 37/dev edition on windows I'm seeing:

That's interesting

It seems to me like a failed calculation of the view matrix that happens, for some reason, in firefox. It was fixed in 3.1, but I can't find the actually lines that were added / changed to cause this. If anyone else knows, you might be able to get it fixed with 3.0.7, but I would simply recommend using 3.1.0-beta , as it is stable enough and will soon be released.

So I tried setting the rotationQuaternion directly, and that seems to do it: https://playground.babylonjs.com/indexstable#TZUQWM#2

I did try using the beta, but you might also see my thread where I'm not seeing shadows in any browser, and particle effects not rendering over the shadow only material in Safari & Chrome.

How did we get to browser incompatibility using a single canvas element beats me

Quaternion is always your friend, I am happy it is resolved this way.

Graphics are hard! When I first saw this, I suspected some rogue transform rotate3d was on the loose or something. Just didn't suspect the rotation code would be off. I would think it would be the same across browsers... Matrix math isn't controversial.
