All you need to do is get a camera facing the apporpriate (sp?) direction and the right height and then just set it to follow the unit.

I think this should go in cinematic development, really.

Although it's rather difficult creating a trigger which enables swapping between third and first person view.

So like this or?

Camera - Set Player 1 (Red)'s camera Rotation to (Rotation of 1rst Person <gen>) over 0.00 seconds

Advanced - Force game camera of (Triggering player) to follow (Picked unit) and enable arrow key control for this unit True

theres a really good 3rd and first person distrobution made by legolas-archer ( correct me if i am wrong ). I think its in the repository... there you can either set it to first or third person view and you can even further with this trigger:

<<have a bolean called FPview>>

Event
Player Cancels Cinematic

Condition
Nothing

Action
If
Boolean FPview = True

Then

Change the variable that sets the view ( you'll see once you download the map)

Else

change the variable to the other one.

sorry if its sketchy... but if you read over the notes and triggers provided in the distrobution you'll understand what i
