## NAME

qtranslate\_matrix, qtranslate\_matrix\_f - Optimised routine for translating an already generated matrix. Allegro game programming library.

## SYNOPSIS

**#include \<allegro.h\>**

**void qtranslate\_matrix(MATRIX \*m, fixed x, fixed y, fixed z);**

**void qtranslate\_matrix\_f(MATRIX\_f \*m, float x, float y, float z);**

## DESCRIPTION

Optimised routine for translating an already generated matrix: this  simply adds in the translation offset, so there is no need to build two  temporary matrices and then multiply them together.
