I made an FPS camera system once, not sure what map tho I'd have to take a look for it. I'll edit this and upload later if I can find it ^^

thanks mate ur a star

can u see the weapon in hand in the camera system like in so many FPS games ?
lol

and if so does the weapon change dependin on what weapon the unit is holding ?
lol
thanks

not really, becuase the camera is behind the unit, however if you used a blank unit then that would work as you could change the offset of the camera to inside the unit.

hmm
i have a camera system which is behind the unit
but how would i got about making the camera inside the unit like u said ?
or is it very complicated ?
lol
thanks

just reduce the distance of the camera so its indise the unit. Why did blizzard have to make cams so awkward? Why not just a 360 sphereical movement object? Who knows?

If you move the camera closer to the unit or zoom it in a bit it will go inside the unit, however, the unit will intersect the caera and you'll get some dodgy clipping. worth a try is moving the caerma in front of the unit. that might work.

mhm or behind the unit and with "invisible" unit skins , and then weapons attachments

you can download my Sharpshooter map but I dont know how much good it will do trying to use the camera for it since its pretty complicated but maybe youll get sort of the basic idea of the camera parameters needed for the first person view. its unprot
