How to setup "free cam" for land vehicles?
« on: 06-09-2013, 11:09:02 »
When you're in a tank, you can push your "free look" button and you can look around freely. How does that work?

I meant, how do you set this up in the vehicle coding, as by default, this doesn't work?

And when you're already at it... can you see if it's possible to add freelook to tank top mounted MGs? Would be very nice if you could actually look around more than you can traverse the gun itself... It feels quite stupid, like your head is glued to the MG or something....

"free cam" won't work for turret mgs, because they use "ctrl" button for crouching. It's better to have ability to hide behind the gun than look around IMO. But there is way to do it, just code top mounted MGs like rear guns in planes, where you have ability to free look in limited way as long as you don't look through your sights. It's the only way to do it, but it's still better than nothing.

Sounds reasonable, I'll take it!
