Hi

Sorry for all my questions. Now I have seen some toturials on youtube at they have got me started very well :-)

But there is one thing I haven't figured out yet. Is it possible to stand and look around - like the camera stays in position, and the target moves around - like you are turning your head? This is possible in Sketchup and is very usefull.

Sorry if I have overlooked this feature.

BTW the way, it's the nice tutorials by MTimtam I've seen:

The camera target picker will swing the camera around to point at what you click at, but that would be the only way. There is no mouse or keyboard keys for this. If you were to put the camera target right in front of the camera location, this would also do something similar when you rotate the camera. ie: it would rotate around a point just in front of it simulating swinging the camera around.

So in short, technically, no. Practically, sort of.

Sorry for the vague answer!

Thanks
Chris.

It would be really nice to implement an optional game like navigation system.
