It could let people see anywhere (even in areas that are supposed to be private), so that should probably only be enabled if you have some privilege.gsmanners wrote:Rather than different modes, what this should do is let you have a button for making the camera freely move. It could default to middle mouse button, since that isn't used for anything, currently.
The camera should not be able to go through blocks unless the noclip priviledge is had.gsmanners wrote:That's a good idea. Have a fly cam if you have fly privs and a camera locked into looking at the player, otherwise.

To further limit cheating, the camera's maximum distance from the player should be limited (this also prevents players from taking the camera all the way to the end of the world.)Evergreen wrote:Right, it could be used for cheating.Inocudom wrote:The camera should not be able to go through blocks unless the noclip priviledge is had.gsmanners wrote:That's a good idea.

For the sake of realism, first person view could allow the player to look down at his/her body from where his/her head is (and the camera would be inside the head, of course.) PilzAdam did attempt something like this before:

A free moveable camera would be an idea for somewhen far in the future. At least i wont do it next time.
IMO it looks crap. Furthermore you cant place the camera inside of the head since you would see the mesh/model from inside then. And you get even more problems with the wield items since the models animations are then visible (like the digging arm) and would cause interferences.Inocudom wrote:For the sake of realism, first person view could allow the player to look down at his/her body from where his/her head is (and the camera would be inside the head, of course.)

What if we used another mesh, which would be overridden for other players on server, that would not have a head? And then fix the camera such that certain views, such as looking straight down at your neck is impossible?BlockMen wrote:A free moveable camera would be an idea for somewhen far in the future.

I don't get what you mean by "And you get even more problems with the wield items since the models animations are then visible (like the digging arm) and would cause interferences"

With a headless mesh it would work, yes. That needs to be used just by client then, so one mesh more to download when connecting to server.hoodedice wrote:What if we used another mesh, which would be overridden for other players on server, that would not have a head?

And maybe its better to understand when trying out Remove https://github.com/BlockMen/minetest/bl ... .cpp#L3344 and https://github.com/BlockMen/minetest/bl ... .cpp#L1129 then you will see what i mean.
Well, that could be done with that "client-side" headless model to, but i dont think that it should be done like that...

From what I noticed, only the outside faces of the default player model's mesh are visible.BlockMen wrote:With a headless mesh it would work, yes.

Blockmen,
Great work.
I am waiting patiently for this to be added to Minetest.
Third person view will be wonderful for let's play, tutorial, and video screenshot videos.
( also It would just be fun to see how our characters look in the Minetest world. )
I play on Linux, so unfortunately a windows build, or a patch for Minetest on Windows isnt something I can use.
I'm going to scroll back and reread this topic in case I missed something about a linux download, but I wanted to let you know how excited I am to have this feature in the works. I've been meaning to say something for a while.
I watched the Videos and third person view is looking good, I want a cape to.

I am CWz on the following servers: VanessaE's servers. If you see CWz on server other then those then chances are it's a Fake. you can contact me on irc.freenode.net or by PM if you are not sure

I think this is using F7.
Anyway, another way you could go would be to use the Skyrim method: Free look (with the camera snapped to the player) all the time except if the player is moving the character with directional keys (WASD). If the character is moving, then you lock the camera behind or in front of the character.

Misty, in linux, compiling things is normal. It isn't just some "Last resort". Just download it from github, copy minetest_game to the game folder, then cmake. - DRUN_IN_PLACE=1 make -j3 ./minetest/bin/minetest. BAMMisty wrote:CWz yes, thanks. if I get desperate to try this I will compile from git.
