Hello everyone. I'm trying to get Max to react, in a basic way, to my position inside a map running in machination (machinima software). So, is there a way to export my coordinates from within a map, or an object that might be able to somehow take the coordinates from the game engine? Of course this basic information is there, I just don't know how to view it or send it to other apps. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. I'm stuck, and can't go any farther with my project until I figure this out.

This you would have to ask the game engine community, as thats the 

resource who possibly know it. After you get that information it 

probably has to be converted into something like OSC or Midi or whatever...

Most likely a Java connection might be possible.

Let us know if the other side gets you going...

I'll poke around in the gaming forums and post here if I come up with anything. Thanks.
