detect view

Yarr, dont see this about anywhere.

Anyone know what the defines are for being in 1st person and 3rd person?

Thanks,

I know the turn animations are only played when in 3rd person view (eg "amovpercmstpsraswrfldnon_turnl"), but that requires the player to be turning (and I don't know how it works in MP either). I'm trying to a better test working, checking if a vector drawn from the players head intersects with his "view" lod, but the view lod seems to return nothing (no named selections?).

edit :

positionCameraToWorld [0,0,0] reports the camera's world positon. Try something like :

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">if (getPos player distance (positionCameraToWorld [0,0,0]) >= 2) then {3rdPersonViewActive = true}

Players in vehicles will probably need different tests.

Thank you so much Fasad - would have never thought of that.

Have the command working well for inf, now to experiment with various vehicles.
