Change it to:

Camera(2.5, -4.169287, 3.899998, 0.983058, -0.365061, 1.271853)

Or if it doesn't work:

Camera(3.5, -4.169287, 3.899998, 0.983058, -0.365061, 1.271853)

The same with the second value if it doesn't work. :@

you know nothing about the camera do you...

Camera(3.5, -4.169287, 3.899998, 0.983058, -0.365061, 1.271853)
the first 3 (x-z-y) are were the camera is
the second 3 (x-z-y) is were the camera is pointing
x=left/right
z=forward/back
y=up/down
so if you wanted to change the camera to see any thing, you would have to change the y or z
not just change any of them and if it doesnt work try another one...
and if you change the camera y posistion you would have to change the y posistion of were the camera is pointing..

i just wanted to know how to make things transparent... =D

Actually, you'd change the x or the y. Why? Because, for example, x is left right, y is depth, and z is up down. And you don't need to change UP-DOWN. You need to change left-right and/or depth. It depends on how the head is positioned.

And the method of "if it doesn't work, try THE OTHER (not another) one" is the right one, because it depends on the scene, and it's better off as trial and error rather than the rule, change x when the head is either this or this, and y when the head is that or another that.

And by the way, I just take the first three variables and call them x, y, z. I don't follow your x-z-y rule, because it's...well...stupid. x, y, z comes natural.

Even with your rule, changing y (up/down) is not the correct thing to do. It'd just place the camera above the head, rather than in front of it, like a First-Person camera SHOULD do.

and i didnt say change y i said change z

you would have to change the y or z

For crying out loud, I'll show you so EVEN YOU understand.

Camera (Left/Right, Forward/Backward, Up/Down, [lookat values]);

Now. You use x as Left/Right, y as Up/Down and z as Forward/Backward.

But I don't care about what they're called. I use them left to right and call them, x, y, z.

Meaning I use x as Left/Right, y as Forward/Backward and z as Up/Down.

and i didnt say change y i said change z

Oh you didn't?

you would have to change the y or z

Yeah you did. And you need to change your x or z, and my x or y.

Are you even reading what you are quoting?

PS. Your rule, meaning the rule you use. I don't care if it's the way it's supposed to be. I can call them a, b, c if I want and I can follow that rule...my rule. I use x, y, z, you use x, z, y.
