Mouselook

[Drilixer]

I wish it flowed more like an FPS though... although that\'ll probably come once the lag is patched up... and is it just me or do all the views seem a little awkward?  I just never have felt like I\'ve gotten a realistic viewpoint from the first person mode.

just you I would say. the lag is the primary problem with smoothness the graphics engine isn\'t optimized yet.

Why dont they have it so u can zoom in to ur charactor with the scroll so u can switch to first person or zoom out about 10 feet, and have the mouse look around and have where ever your looking you head turns and looks the direction so your feet do not glide on the ground. just an idea.

yeah thats what I would like - a zoom function would be nice

and I wasn\'t attacking the graphics they are nice - and getting better - but the fixed view bothers me - zoom would be nice

From Mogura\'s Newbie FAQ
44. The third View mode seems pretty useless... how do I use it?
This is the Camera mode. Click and hold the right mouse button and move the mouse to rotate/tilt the camera. Hold both buttons down and move the mouse towards/away from you to zoom in and out.

Thank you Abemore,
How did i miss #44 in Mogura\'s Newbie FAQ.

I\'d implement a toggle to mouselook on a third mouse button, so that you can go in and out of mouselook without having to take your hand off the mouse.

Also when you go into and out of mouselook with the \\ key, it takes you back to looking straight ahead sometimes, rather than just leaving the viewpoint the same.
