3RD person view for TSE milestone 4

by Morrie · in General Discussion · 09/08/2006 (11:56 pm) · 7 replies

I've looked in some of the post, but all of them were on Milestone 3.5 and the code wasn't the same. My question is how do I create a 3rd person view in Milestone 4 forTSE.

Well for starters you should ask this in the private TSE forum. But I don't think MSE4 is out yet.

MSE4 :D

But yeah, this should be asked in the Private Forums. MS4 has a few pieces that are not working, just port them over from TGE/TSE 3.5

Randy,

TSE: MS4 came out a few days ago on CVS. I haven't spent much time with it, though. Lighting/Shadows are in.

I,ve seen the 3rd person in 3.5 and when I downloaded Milestone 4 which is out the first person character looks all blocky and separated so I figured if I'd put the character in third view it would hopefully work like it did in 3.5. I was able to do it in 3.5 though tutorials and the forum updates I saved, but when I tried this with a fresh copy of Mileston 4 it didn't work.

I can't seem to get toggleFirstPerson to work in MS4 either...

Mine doesn't work either, I've tried searching for more examples on the 3rd person view and so far no luck.

Hei !!!

The problem is that you can't switch between first and 3rd person view ?
No problem ... I see that with my tse coder ....
Insert in default.bind.cs che same lines used in tge 1.4 :

$firstPerson = true;
function toggleFirstPerson(%val)
{
if (%val)
{
$firstPerson = !$firstPerson;
ServerConnection.setFirstPerson($firstPerson);
}
}

then you can switch first to 3d person view !!

Bye
