Hello all together,
i hope that somebody will help. I am trying to rotate my 3D-Map so, that i get an exact isometric view. I have tried many ways but it only looks similar, not exact. Is there a way to solve it without to rotate the object and the camera degree for degree?
Thanks for helping.

You can't just rotate the camera 45 degrees?

Hello,
thank you for your help. I wan´t to make a strategy game in an isometric view. At the moment i am thinking about which way is the best for me. I have a tool in which i can make object to sprites in different camera positions.
But to make the tarrain i guess it is easier to use a 3d object (I use the T.ED Editor). If i use only sprites it always looks right, but if i use the terrain as 3d i am not 100 percent sure whether it looks right.
It is my first project. Maybe i take more time to create the map as a sprite and use everything in 2D. It is better for the first project.

Have you tried using SetCameraFOV(1, 0) to set aspect ratio to zero. This forces camera to use orthographic matrix.
