Camera rotational conventions

Is it just me or is the rotation sign of the camera are opposite to the physical conventions.

When the camera is rotated to the right/up the camrotation.y/x value is decreasing instead of increasing.

another thing:

Why is the camrotation value not in a cycle (its incrementing consistently) and its signed instead of absolute.

Yeah, the x and y axis rotations are reversed in LE (compared to natural logic), but you can easily fix it by changing by adding a "-" sign in your C headers in the TurnEntity and RotateEntity functions. There you can also fix the cycle.

 

Of course everyone has a different opinion how axes should be faced, and I find the idea that righter (x+), higher (y+), deeper (z+) is the most natural way for me.
