Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Hi,
Hope you don't mind, Peter, but I did get the MATH quaternions working so thought I should paste the BASIC in here so others can see how to use the functions; specifically how to use the "MATH Q_ROTATE" function, which is the one I struggled with.
Runs at around 45fps.
