Camera Programming

[sights0d]

Just some feedback for folks that don't know how to use it, here are a set of commands to change the third person view in multiplayer (I don't know if it works in single player)...

1. First, make sure you are in devmap mode.

a. Hold down the shift key and press ~.

b. type in devmap [map name]

(c. In order to find the name of the map, first type in mapname)

2. To change the camera angle, type in cg_thirdpersonangle [1-360]

3. To change the distance from the player, type cg_thirdpersonrange [some number] (I usually use 20).

4. To change the height of the camera, (The Z axis) type cg_thirdpersonvertoffset [some number] (I usually use -5).

5. If you type the codes in by themselves (i.e. cg_thirdpersonangle) it will usually tell you what the default is.

6. There are a lot of commands that I haven't toyed with yet. For a complete list of thirdperson commands, type cg_thirdperson and you'll get a full list.
