Player Turning Issue

by ben calder · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 09/02/2008 (12:37 pm) · 2 replies

Is there a way I can make the player turn without rotating the camera? At the moment I am battleing with AFX to make it so that the mouse controls the direction of the player. But to do this I have to rotate the camera, and I carnt figure out how to make it so that the camera stays fixed and the player alone rotates. Any Help or advice would be greatly appretiated.

Thanks,

You have to make changes in camera as well as player class, we implemented GTA like camera.
We have used Advanced camera resource and heavily modified it as per our requirements.
Try orbit camera , that's the thing you need.

Thanks Viren, I set up the advanced camera mod as you suggested, and it works great.

Thanks
