Start in 3rd person

by Andrew Edmonds · in Torque Game Engine · 10/01/2006 (7:55 am) · 3 replies

Hi all,

First - apologies... I know this question has been answered here already but I just can't seem to fins it today!

How can I get the game to start in third person mode, rather than first person? I want to do this and disable camara mode switching so 3rd person is the only option.

Thanks,

Mike

Enter "ServerConnection.setFirstPerson(false);" as the last line of code in
GameConnection::onClientEnterGame in the server game.cs.

For switching you can disable key bind.
