Last time....proposal

Post by RaGe|DB »

Make a ingame ball camera
1. it adds alot for quality movie makers
2. It makes spectating alot of fun
3. the demos will win (if you spectate)

I know I've proposed this many times, but never got a straight answer...

btw. you should be able to look around 360 degrees

As neat as it sounds, I think it wouldn't pan out in practice. I don't think it would be as smooth as you invision it. It would drive you nuts after a few minutes.

We can't know till we try the real thing
basicly there are other camera's, if you don't want this one, you can choose another one

Agreed, but it shouldn't be so hard to lock an extra spectator cam to the ball by default /o\

All the coding needed is the free-looking I guess >_<

Anyway, yeh ;p more important things :( I guess :o
