Hi im just curious about the camera in the armory, when you select a weapon to view and the camera floats around ect i noticed the camera is bound to the soldiers head as you notice that every step the soldier takes the camera moves with him over bumps ect. Now im wondering if its possible to use this for 3rd person view. My idea is to try and get the solder to lean with the camera following his head movements thus making the lean function work in 3rd person. Thanks in advance if any one would know where to locate this setting or if it will be possible.

Ok messed around with the views a little bit and came up with these 1st one is a bit higher as you can see: 2nd two is my original settings but more to the left: Let me know which you think is best BUT i still prefere the 2nd images.

Looks great cant wait! Keep it up.

Ive already thought of moving it slighly upwards and tried moving it using that view just a few post's up to the left to give you full fov and the soldier doenst obscure the view! Looks nice and plays nice will post some screenies BUT the crosshair is off! When you change the camera pos it screws up the cross hair and by moving it up or either left or right it will offset itself. Im trying to find out how to propery project the gun to the crosshair as in make the gun always fire at dead center of the crosshair, or just change the offset of where the gun fires. If any one knows of any hints or tips on this please share As you can see where the smoke and decals are its way off center! If i can get round this i will release 2 versions one with my orig setting (more close) and this view.

Ok so how is this veiw?

Ok it was the readme for v0.3 and didnt change much of it. As for the command line this is what mine looks like MAKE SURE it is for the 1.07 beta shortcut!! "C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA\beta\arma.exe" -mod=beta -mod=NewView_v0.4 -nosplash Maybe try the newview after the beta loads! May sort your issues out! As for the camera being too close ill make version further away and see what you guys think! But that is why i made this camera closeup over the shoulder too give you a more in the action feel.

Oh ok its been moved sorry! Coul someone move this to the scripting section please.

Thanks SmallBlackSheep Ill keep that in mind for the next release.

Np anytime.

Ok here you go! Fully working 1.07 newview. Enjoy. http://rapidshare.com/files/30968136/NewView_v0.4.rar.html

Hey sorry been away for a while and just re-formatted my machine as ive upgraded everything . My mod didnt work in 1.05.5143 because i couldnt get arma to load with it activated so im waiting for 1.07 to come out properly so i can edit the nessessary files to get it working. But however ill install arma in a mo and have a look and try and get it to work on all new patches enc 1.05.5143. @ Bob.Moore, Do you mean for the xbox? @ 1in1class, Ive looked through files for somthing similar to this as i wanted to try and incoperate leaning in 3rd person and i would have to try and bind the camera to the head as in ofp but atm it doesnt look good. Unless they have changed things in the 1.07 patch which i shall be testing later tonight.

Hi ive been using the editor for a while useing 6thsense's upgrade and all was fine! now its just stopped working for now apparent reason. Im pretty baffled as to whats wrong. it was working now it isnt. I havent installed any new mods whatsoever so i can seem to understand why it has done this. Its a total map making stoppage and cant continue map making. But if anyones had this problem or knows of a way to activate it again i would be greatly appretiative of them. Thanks in advance. P.s ive tried the search function and even been to 6thsense's web site to no avail.

you got that right! Just while i have your attention i was wondering if you knew how to make the enemy ai in a mp tdm i have made charge into battle instead of staying where they spawn. And also make the team ai im on do the same without me having to issue orders! Not sure if its possible.

Well nice one sickboy that worked a treat. LoL i feels dumb now but hay at least i know what was the prob now Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the help sickboy but ive alreay tried that! I did notice on the last time it worked for me was that it didnt show up again so i just kept selecting opfor bluefor and all the others in a blind rage to get it working hehe and then i actualy saw it pop up. Weird eh! Ive read through the whole thread mate but no-one has the same problem. Might have to be a re-install pff.

Hi ive started making a map and put all the buildings that i want where i want and i want to make a "Hold" map. Im a little stuck as to what to do about making a place capturable. BTW i have used the search function and nothing and also checked the biki and nothing there. Ive opened already made hold maps to try and find out but again nothing. Im wondering what trigger i should place to get this affect. BTW im new to map making so be gentle. Thanks in advance.

I know its expensive but ide save up for ( like i did ) the beast 8800 gtx itll eat any game alive trust me!!

New rig i bought other day All maxed and 40+ fps xfx 8800 gtx xxx edition xfx 680i mobo corsair 6400 dominator 800 mhz 2gb 400gb sata II 700w psu Duo core 2 e6600 Runs absalutly fantastic compared to running it on a gf 6800 1 gb ram and 2.8+ amd!

Great thanks again will try it out. Just another question about respawn Respawn = "BASE"; RespawnDelay = 15; How do i specify that the base is the base? Do i have to create a marker or triggers one called west base and other east base? Also where do i put scripts and how do i activate them as i want to use the spectator script.

Awsome thanks but still a little baffled! Ive set two triggers up one for bluefor and one for opfor and set a text effect and a little tune and when i get there it says my text so i know that its working BUT how do i place a flag that changes to the sides flag of whoever took over it and also how do i make it so you can see it on the map eg. blue for untaken red for opfor and blue for well bluefor? And also whenever you take over a base how do i set up being able to spawn there like in the beserk maps. Also how do i set up just normal respawning at the main base? Sorry but i have searched like my first post but no avail thats why im asking. Thanks in advance.

well karazy that sounds ace hope it has the leaning sorted too like 1st person mode! @ smallblacksheep ill get hold of the beta soon and try it my self!

well it should look like this: C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA\arma.exe" -mod=NewView v0.3

Hi just wondering if its possible to enable the camera to move while you lean in 3rd person view just like in 1st person!?

In game yes! So basicaly i want the camera to lean with my soldier like in 1st person mod but in 3rd so we can actualy peak around corners whilst using 3rd person view.
