CoolColJ Posted June 10, 2000 Share Posted June 10, 2000 I really really really hate the circular camera pivot CM has now, is there a reason why it pivots like this as opposed to a single point pivot all 3d game and FPS games have??? It also makes it impossible to make panaroma pics as well Another requested feature - I'd like to be able to lock to a unit and be able to pan left and right without dropping off the unit. Its especially annoying when you lock to a unit on the second floor, and want to move the camera an inch to the left to see something better, and then bam your on the bottom of the building Just use the arrow keys to unlock off the unit instead of the mouse. ------------------ Check out my CM mods, Music and artwork www.geocities.com/coolcolj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiloIndiaAlpha Posted June 10, 2000 Share Posted June 10, 2000 I agree. It would be nice to pan around and still be attached to a unit. ------------------ Dulce Et Decorum Est Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackhorse Posted June 10, 2000 Share Posted June 10, 2000 I agree too. It would make it so much easier to admire the soldiers and squads ya'll have created BTS. Please consider it. Allons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiloIndiaAlpha Posted June 10, 2000 Share Posted June 10, 2000 Blackhorse, It's a long shot, but have you ever been involved in any of the Unified Endeavor exercises run by USACOM/JTASC? (Or any Prairie Warrior ex's run by Warrior Prep center?) ------------------ Dulce Et Decorum Est Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Echo Posted June 10, 2000 Share Posted June 10, 2000 You can look at your infantry in the 2nd storie with the "2" view. That lines up perfect with the 2nd floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Formerly Babra Posted June 10, 2000 Share Posted June 10, 2000 CoolColJ: Try this. Have your infantry on the second floor area target the direction you want to view. Hit the tab key. when you're done, retarget them normally. ------------------ When I die I want to go peacefully, like my grandfather, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolColJ Posted June 10, 2000 Author Share Posted June 10, 2000 Babra - that only works during orders, but most of the time, I lock onto units only when I playing back a movie And when ya wanna get a better view you drop off. You automaticly move the mouse when you want to move the camera. ccj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zamo Posted June 11, 2000 Share Posted June 11, 2000 I too hate the circular rotate vs. point rotate. It would really be nice to have both. I wrestle all the time trying to get the view I really want, when it actually should be something I shouldn'g have to think about. Please BTS, this would really fix things up closer to perfection.

Midnight Warrior Posted June 11, 2000 Share Posted June 11, 2000 It might be nice to have some programmable camera locations too. For instance they could be selected by hitting the special function keys (F1 thru F12). The location, altitude, and direction of each camera would be then be the last wwhich it was dragged to. That way just stepping through keys F1 thru F12 could give a quick visual tour of the battlefield. For example F1 could be programmed a high alt top view, F2 to be the view from hill 123, F3 the view from the bad guys side looking back, etc. ------------------ March To The Sound Of The Guns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
