2nd Person View?

[austin0331]

I was thinking earlier, you know how we have 3rd and 1st person view? How 1st is what you see, and 3rd is what someone else should see? Well, I was thinking if we could have 2nd person view. 2nd person view would be looking right in front of us. If you do not understand, here is an example:

Have you ever been making a video, or taking the picture, but you still want to be driving your car, or whatever, but you have to turn your avatar's head around, and you still don't get that perfect view you want? So, you try using the admin bubble thingy, but you still need to be driving/shooting your car/item? Just a small thought that I thought that maybe could be possible. If it's not possible, please just say so and don't make and argument.

First person is seeing from your character's eyes, third person is seeing from some unrelated parties' eyes, Second person would be seeing from the eyes of your target. I don't know of any game that makes use of a second party view.

I had a feeling this was just a variation on 3rd person view (not actually second person).

As far as the recording/photos goes - Get actors/someone to take photo for you.
Also you can use the console command (I may have the command slightly wrong)
chasecam(Number);    (Is there a servercommand.   before that - I cant remember )  But this creates an effect in 3rd person of the camera sort of following the person, the number setting a delay time.

ah. ill just use the actor thing. thanks. i have a good friend that i always give admin to. ill ask him to do those little bits for me thanks  ( not that im making a movie or nuthin, i just wanted to know if it was possible. i think lots of other peoples movies would be better if this existed. ) Also, I forgot to mention, the minifigs face would be looking right at you, not looking behind or whatev.
