3rd Person by default

#1 Delete the first person mode setting

#2 Where would that setting be exactly? :)

#3 Its something like

$firstPerson = 0;
ServerConnection.setFirstPerson ($firstPerson);

or just
ServerConnection.setFirstPerson (0);

#4 Hmm, I tried this in the default.bind.cc, doesnt work correctly. When i switch to 3rd Person, I cant go back into 1rst after hitting Tab. But still starts at 1rst person. Am I goin into the right .cc file?

#5 In common/clientConnection.cs, at the end of GameConnection::onConnect(), add a call to:

ServerConnection.setFirstPerson(false);

It's unfortunate that the edit is in the "common" code rather than in the mod code, though. However, given that things like "armor" or "male" are hard-coded in this function, it seems like any game will have to modify this file anyway, or re-factor it into a per-mod function.

#6 It works, awesome thanx!

#7 It's very thanks!!!
I worked in the TGE 1.5

C:\Torque\SDK\example\common\server\clientConnection.cs

Add

ServerConnection.setFirstPerson(false);

at the end of GameConnection::onConnect()

#8 How do I start in 3rd person with the "starter.racing" files?

I can start the race in 3rd person mode by adding the following line:

$firstPerson = false;

to the function "function WheeledVehicleData::onAdd(%this,%obj)" in "car.cs"... but I'd like the count down in 3d person too... how can I do that?

Thanks ;)

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

#10 Fucifer thanks for your reply...
