Different animations in first and third person

by Grant · in Torque 3D Professional · 10/17/2011 (5:25 pm) · 2 replies

I have recently purchased the torque game engine and I was wondering if anyone can help me with this:

I want to have an animation like this:


that is seen only by the player in the first person camera and an animation of the actual player model performing the same action that can only be seen by other players/third person.

I imagine this is how most games work and I have tried searching for resources on this topic but they are all from a couple years ago.

Sorry if this is not clear

Looks like a tutorial is going to be relased with torque 1.2 to help with this exact type of thing. check out Derek's blogs on the front page.
