Hello, I have searched the forum pretty good and cant find a good working demonstration of this.

I am trying to cap the mouse look so you don't flip the view all the way backwards when moving your mouse up. Here is my mouse look code now...



As you may have guessed, I'm doing a FPS.

Thank you.

Awesome thanks, I was trying to do something like that but couldn't get it. Here is what I ended up using:



But now I am stumped on another question, no need to make another post. I am using a sphere as the player for collision as of now, but I can't get a good way to make the sphere transparent. I tried the following and it works, but when you ALT+TAB or open another window and come back to the game, it errors out saying the object is missing. I understand why but think of a better way to do it.

Current player creation code...

Does setting the object's Alpha level to 0, so that it is still there and rendered, just invisible....

Im not sure if thats a known issue with GDK or not.. sounds kind of like one, something to do with not restoring the device properly(internally) I assume.

If it ain't broke.... DONT FIX IT !!!

Yeah I solved this a bit ago, the other one was kinda odd. I don't know if it is an issue or not. I just used this like you said...
