Okay, how does one convert from one to the other so that the compiler doesn't throw errors, ala:F:\3D Graphics\Cinema 4D\C++ SDK\Projects\interPoser Pro\source\IPPBase.cpp(3615) : error C2440: 'type cast' : cannot convert from 'const struct Matrix' to 'struct LMatrix'
F:\3D Graphics\Cinema 4D\C++ SDK\Projects\interPoser Pro\source\IPPBase.cpp(3643) : error C2440: 'type cast' : cannot convert from 'struct LMatrix' to 'struct Matrix'
Should I be using dynamic_cast or something? Again, from ages past, what is the use of Quaternions if one cannot convert a Matrix into an LMatrix and back?
Help, now, please?

Is it really that difficult to add these conversions (and those for LVector<->Vector)? Come on!

Thanks Robert, I will see what can be done about simpler conversion between Matrix/LMatrix.

Öhm, why not using const
const LMatrix LM(const Matrix& m);
const Matrix SM(const LMatrix& m);
Or am I missing something? -
