Hi,
I know how to straffe with a camera already thanks to the help files but i'm confused as to how to straff a 3d object in 3rd person perspective.
Thanks in advance
P.s: does anyone know the proper address of that matrix editor its somethings like www.allseeing-i.com
thanks x-d

if you mean how do you straff the camera in 3rdperson perspective then you would keep the code for strafiing the camera and you would just rewrite it specifying object numbers instead of a blank where the camera number would be
if you show me your source code i could tell you what you need to write [img][/img]

I have a word of advice...

that doesnt appear to be the code i needed

but i think i know what u have done. I havnt seen the rest of the code but i would image that somewhere after that you have writte:

position camera x#,y#,z#
if this is the case then im sorry i cant help. i always make 3rd person games using the set camera to follow command [img][/img]
i wasnt really expecting the code you have above [img]:$[/img] i was expecting :

if rightkey()=1 then yrotate camera wrapvalue(camera angle y()+90) : move camera 1 : yrotate camera wrapvalue(camera angle y()-90)

if lefttkey()=1 then yrotate camera wrapvalue(camera angle y()-90) : move camera 1 : yrotate camera wrapvalue(camera angle y()+90)

but then again i only use that when im using bsp maps!

id say at a guess try...

I have a word of advice...
