Path camera

I can't figure out how to get my path camera to work. If I have %this.setControlObject(%this.player); the camera won't move. But if I don't include it the level won't load! I'm not sure on what to do and would appriciate some help.

Setcontrolobject can be used to give the player control of the camera, the player, and problebly anything else. My problem is if I don't set control of the player or camera the level won't load. if I do set control the camera won't move along the path because the player has control of it. I'm not really sure on how to go about making a pathed camera. But all of the resources on the subject require engine modifications. Has anybody make a pathed camera? For things like cutscenes?

I assume you are using the free demo from the TGE products page (seeing that your profile does not indicate you own TGE)? if so, then you are running the demo I speak of, just click the 'Interactive Engine Walkthrough' button and enjoy seeing what TGE can do while following a path camera.
