I'm hitting an odd issue, and haven't found a solution to in the forums, wiki or ZScript references. After adding USEACTORPITCH and USEACTORROLL to a model, I can successfully rotate instances of it on all axes within Ultimate Doom Builder. However, when running the map in GZDoom, the model instances are all rendered as if their actor's Pitch and Roll values were at 0. I've confirmed that the model actor's Pitch and Roll in GZDoom are the same as in UDM. I've also set NOGRAVITY for the model's actor, just in case.
Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening?
I'm attaching a PK3 demonstrating what I'm seeing. If you open the PK3's map in UDM, you can see that the instances of the chair model are rotated to different values along all 3 axes, but in GZDoom, the chairs are rendered as if the Pitch and Roll were 0. ALSO, I set it up so that if you "use" any of the chairs in GZDoom, a console output will tell you what the Actor's Angle, Pitch and Roll values are set to.

Re: Model pitch & roll work in UDM, not GZDoom (USEACTORPITCH & USEACTORROLL used)
I posted this issue to both the ZDoom forum and the DoomWorld forum. I received a solution on the DoomWorld forum and wanted to post it here for others with the same issue.
Any settings applied in a Model definition only apply to the "Frame" lines that come after them. When you use USEACTORPITCH and/or USEACTORROLL make sure these lines are above any "Frame" lines. If they aren't then they won't have any effect on the way that GZDoom renders the model. UDB tries to mimic GZDoom, but in this regard it simply doesn't match.
