What is the best way to map strings into world space ? Specifically, I want to know where the end of a string lies in my world space. Once I know that I can attach various world objects to it, like lines, arrows, and such. The beginning of a string is easy, but where is the end ? I generate my own modeling and viewing matrices, and I don't use the ortho/perspective/rot/translate calls. I don't know if map2 and mapw can handle this. I would rather just calculate the positions directly. What is the standard practice for calculating this ?
