Anyone knows a good code snippet for the character`s camera movement on the world map.What i mean is that i specially need a code for the rotation of the camera around the character(like in Final Fantasy when u press R1-R2 or is it L1-L2) and the character still fixes toward and he doesn`t look at you when you rotate the camera.

It will be nice if you could post the character`s movement code too cuz it may be better than mine(mine is still incomplete).

yes... but i'd suggest you run through the help files and show atleast an attempt you've made before any help is given - we're not here to make your games for you

maybe it would be better for someone to set an example for him thats how i learn better by asking questions perhaps it may not make no sense in the help files and im interested in doing something like that as well but not sure how

well... i have to say this quite simple to achieve, and if you guys take a little more time in the examples and just learning some basic math (like CosSin Circle equasions) its not exactly hard to accomplish

Thanks to you guys(RPGamer)!Everything was based on that yrotation and i just had to make it yrotate my character as the camera turns along.Then it will be synchronized(The same angle i turn the camera,i`ll yrotate my character) and my character will always face in the direction of the camera
