The eye pose, and left-handed game engines

handedness is something that's accounted for at the time of conversion from a quaternion into another type that does include handedness (like Euler angles or a matrix).

Hi Brad

Thanks for taking the time to reply. I am converting from a quaternion to a matrix, and doing the multiply with the two matrices, as there's no Mat * Quat in their maths lib. Are you saying there are two forms of quaternion => matrix? I've scoured the net, suspecting that may be the case, but didn't find an alternative implementation.

I was really keen to avoid going via Euler angles, as I thought you got a singularity/gimbal issue ?

I was unsure whether the pose should be applied to the camera's matrix, or the view matrix and have tried both, to no success.
