Hi
We are having a problem ,as we are not able to get a perfect (orthographic view - top view) with the camera
is there any parameter for the camera to get a perfect top view, now we tried to take a screen shot -we find the edges are distorting.We are keen to hear any solution that can solve the above said problem.

Thanks

HuH????? in maya?? you have "top" "front" "side" and "perspective" in the four view...
are you asking about the game "cam" node?

Not sure if you posted this in the right forum ...try to rotate in down 90 or
look for this in the player.cs for this below that controls the cam..

cameraDefaultFov = 90.0;
cameraMinFov = 5.0;
cameraMaxFov = 120.0;
