GI Jas Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 I noticed on the game overview one of the features for CMRT was a First Person Camera? Where is this option? Or is it something where you can move the camera as if it where in FP? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddball_E8 Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Click on unit and hit tab. That'd be a follow camera... a third person camera... not first person. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check also the CM Game Engine Manual (in the main folder) on side 12 for further info. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huhr Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 I noticed that when I use the RTS mode, page 12 that the menus come up on the screen which is nice and I don't have to use the keyboard. The standard mode doesn't allow you to have the menus on the screen? Sort of like CM1? I still ended up using the keyboard I have to figure out what I like best. I sort of liked the way we had it in cm1. By the way, do you guys keep any of the aides on the screen like movement arrows etc? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve mentioned they might add the right click menu to the standard camera when I mentioned it after RT was released. That would be awesome. Have you tried FPS camera? Made me dizzy. Others love it.

LukeFF Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Steve mentioned they might add the right click menu to the standard camera when I mentioned it after RT was released. That would be great if they did. The FPS controls are a nice idea, but I don't like the way the camera jumps all around when one starts to move the camera. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huhr Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I went to the standard mode but for some reason I have not immersed myself into this game like I did when I received the cmbb game. I also have Normandy but for some reason I choose not to play. Something is just missing with the game and I can't pin it down. I liked the LOS tool in CMBB but it's not as easy to do it on these games, unless I am missing something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked the LOS tool in CMBB but it's not as easy to do it on these games, unless I am missing something. Use Target. It has LOS indicators built in. I found the same missing quality in reverse once I started playing CMx2 games. Could not go back to CMBB or CMAK. YMMV. Bobo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
womble Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 The other thing you can do with the LOS tool that I don't think you could do with CMx1 games is use it from a selected waypoint so you can see (roughly) what the outlook will be when your unit gets there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyD Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I recall Steve just swears by this, says this is how he plays now. Me, I guess I'm just oldschool. I haven't even modified my default key commands. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find the default works just fine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Ditto - but I did try it - both of them. Yikes, I did not like it at all. Back to the default... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
