camera controls

[sith hunter]

these cheats work in sp ad mp
open the console command and try these:

cg_thirdpersoncameradamp # (between 0 and 0.4 is great)
(use 0 if you want to activate it)
(use 1 if you want to deactivate it)

"The Force is Strong in this one!"
Remember Shadows of The empire or Heretic II....?yeah,this is.
Excellent for playing duels...cinematic fighting.




cg_thirdpersonvertoffset 0 (moves the camera up and down behind your player)



Well,your thoughts?

Ok, please dont flame me for acting like a newbie cause im not, i just dont post here much. Anyway my question is: How do you rotate the camera (in SP and MP) to be looking at the front of your character, like in the many model screenshots. I know it has something to do with the "setviewpos x y z yaw" command, but when i use that, I cant figure out which angle to set it to. Please help.

Thanks in advance.

cg_thirdpersonangle #

where # is the degree you want the camera to be, 0 is from behind, 180 from in front.

cg_thirdpersonrange # controlls the distance of camera


thereisnospoon is a cheat in single player that makes the camera spin around you in slow mo.

I'll have to try this out. Sounds nice.

[bobajangofett]

thx a lot, it makes sense now.

[Arkum]

it's cool, but I'd rather stick with the default third person view

[bobajangofett]

well you see, this is mainly for screenshots.
