What's the button to change the darned camera angles
« on: March 24, 2014, 09:26:52 AM »
I've looked everywhere to see where to change it, and pushed every button. Maybe I'm just an idiot, or lazy, or both. Either way I need to have a better angle than the one they give you. Thanks.

Right mouse button, drag.

And mouse zoom/ PgUpPgDown to zoom.

Or F10, if you want to move the camera, yourself.

Thats weird. I've never heard of that happening before. As such, I'm not quite sure how to fix it. I suppose I could finish coding an Action Cam equivalent to replace it...

I get that happening too, where the camera like lags behind. Could be the system. Do you want a quick video of it, Trov?

Thats fine. The orbit camera tends to lag on two of my computers so I've got a pretty good idea of how bad it can get. Its just sounds like Reier and Lemonism are experiencing a more extreme level of camera lag.

I've got a couple hours of free time so I'll see what I can do about it.
