Did I miss something?

by Stephen Kelly · in Game Design and Creative Issues · 07/27/2008 (2:46 pm) · 6 replies

I just finished replacing the starter player object, but the camera is appearing INSIDE the character. Is there something I missed here, like how to set the camera? If possible, I would like to make it 3rd person.

PS: I am using Blender, if it matters.

Great... While I was waiting for a response, I discovered another problem. My player object goes halfway into the ground. Does anyone know what this might be because of?

If you didn't create the eye nodes, it might be defaulting them to the center of your character. Same with the groundplane.

Ok... So how do I correct it?

Create a node in Max called 'eye' and move it where you want it before you export it.

Sigh... I already said I use Blender. In EVERY topic I've made.

Ok I made an armature and named it Eye, but the camera is still messed up. I put it behind and above so that it would be 3rd person, in case that is wrong.
