My mod is far deviated from the standard sources and I don't have those lying around, but in my sources the third person camera code is in:
void CSDKInput::CAM_ThirdPersonThink() In your code it may be in CInput and you'd have to override it. The file you're looking at should be c_sdk_input.cpp/h In that think function is where you can put special rules to place the camera where you want it to be depending on the position and orientation of the player. Also you can force the player into third person all the time by issuing a CAM_ToThirdPerson() command somewhere, or perhaps by putting "thirdperson" in a config file somewhere. I take it you modified OverrideView(), and you're right, that's not the best place to do it. In general you should try to only modify SDK-specific files and classes, and OverrideView() isn't quite for what you're trying to do with it. You don't set the third person camera information there, however you should save off the results of CAM_ThirdPersonThink and pass them into OverrideView if the player is in third person. Sorry if this is vague, I'm doing it all from memory! I hope it helps. -- Jorge "Vino" Rodriguez _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
