erve 0 Posted March 14, 2002 I asked the same question on ofpeditingcenter.com...... I really hope a BIS'er can answer this... Has anyone been able to use camcreate to create an object and use other camera commands on that object? i.e. camsetdir, camsetdive, camsetbank.. I know your supposed to _camera camcommit 0 but it doesn't seem to work.. Say for instance.. _rocket camsetdir 150 _rocket camsetdive -45 _rocket = "Rocket57" camcreate[20,20,20] _rocket camcommit 0 Doesn't work. neither does; _rocket = "Rocket57" camcreate[20,20,20] _rocket camsetdir 150 _rocket camsetdive -45 _rocket camcommit 0 Which seems more logical.. maybe if I create a proper camera first... _rocket = "camera" camcreate[20,20,20] _rocket camsetdir 150 _rocket camsetdive -45 _rocket camcommit 0 _rocket = "Rocket57" camcreate[20,20,20] camdestroy _rocket Would that work?? The rocket is created but direction and angle are not. Also Shells & HEAT rounds don't have an initial velocity they just drop straight down!! Is there anyway to set an initial velocity of an object?? I hope all this is possible, because then I might actually have fun using maths/physics for once Cheers, Erve. EDIT: Maybe Initial velocity could be assigned to the true camera then the imitation one brought in.. i.e. _rocket = "camera" camcreate[20,20,20] _rocket camsetdir 150 _rocket camsetdive -45 _rocket camcommit 0 @camcommited _rocket _rocket camsetrelpos [25,25,25] _rocket camcommit 0.001 _rocket = "Rocket57" camcreate[20,20,20] camdestroy _rocket EDIT #2 Maybe technically a rocket isn't a "camera" so maybe setdir works??? If so what about vertical angle?? how would I set that as there's no setdive command (not camsetdive just setdive) ?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
