Third Person Perspective Broken in Latest TSE?

by Ingmar Gagen · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 08/16/2006 (2:59 pm) · 2 replies

Hi all,

I recently checked out the latest TSE from CVS and third person perspective doesn't seem to be working. The key bindings still seem to be set up so TAB should toggle perspective, but for some reason it's not working. Also, running ToggleFirstPerson() from the console doesn't seem to work either. Has anybody else run into this and know of a fix or workaround?

Thanks,
Alex

Are you using the demo or the waterdemo? if I remember right, the water demo doesn't have a player in control, just a camera.

I think you need to use something along the lines of %client.setFirstPerson(false) on the server rather than what code is set up by default in that keybind. By default, I think the keybind just changes a variable that did nothing at all for me.
