Title: Third Person And GUNS
Post by: shadow99 on 24 Jul 2004, 05:19:34

For starters, how can I (through the mission editor) make the default starting view of the player in 3rd person?

And lastly, are there any machine-gun LIKE (I say LIKE because I know machine guns are impossible in this situation) in which you could start off with, as well as a Rocket Launcher? Steyr, anything like that? (This is for West, BTW)

Thank you.

Hi shadow99

ok if the map your making is for single player then in the soldiers init put this:

Code: [Select]

unitname switchCamera "EXTERNAL"

Cheers. What about Campaign? After I make all of these missions single player I plan on putting them in a campaign? You think I could do it through description.ext or init.sqs?

Find "Campaign editor" from the editors depot. You don't need to know anything about campaign making in order to use it! :D
