After intro script, return control to player?

[sick1 13]

Is it possible to start a camera script, then have it return control to the player during the mission all within the actual mission and not during the intro? Can't find anything about this anywhere. Thanks!!

player cameraEffect ["terminate","back"];

player cameraEffect ["terminate","back"];

Thanks, but all of my scripts use this but it never returns control to the player. It was the first thing I tried when testing this, but no luck.

Can you post the scene code you're using please?

Hi,

Are you destroying the camera?

camDestroy _cam;

Well I got it working thanks to all of your suggestions, but I have a new problem. I can't get the Cinema border to disappear using the command. Can some one take a look at my file and let me know whats wrong?

enableSentences false;

enableRadio false;

_camera = "CAMERA" camCreate [8359.56,5981.50,0.45];

Hi again,

Try to put the cinemaBorder command after creating the camera but remember that only works in SP.

You can also add a custom resource to act as a cinema border. This one will work also in multiplayer (wasn't aware it was only a singleplayer effect), and you can do more with it. Like i.e., add sound effects or whatever.

Eagle Wing mini campaign uses this alternate approach. Might have a look there.

Is there any tool or command to see you're/object exact location for using it like this: _camera camPrepareTarget [82425.31,70735.20,-9311.25]; ?
