Looking for a Tutorial, how to setup the GameCam for Cam Perspective 2.5D

twinbits3D

I'm looking for a tutorial how I have to setup the cam as 2.5D cam , when player movement is set to point and click. I mean there is one tutorial from Chris, as a Video tutorial, but I can't find it! I need a little help how to setup the Game Camera script for cursor influence, X-axis movement and so on.

Thank you for your hints and help.

Best Regards Bernd

The 2.5D tutorial can be found here.  However, AC's 2.5D GameCamera does not support cursor influence or movement - this is because the convenience of being able to set a background graphic via the Inspector prevents this.

In order to make use of those features, you can instead use a regular 3D GameCamera in your scene.  The prefab can be found in /Assets/AdventureCreator/Camera/GameCamera.

You'll then need to place your background into the scene as a sprite.  You can then attach the Align To Camera and the Limit Visibility components to it in order to make it work with your new GameCamera - both of these components are covered in the video tutorial.

Hi Chris,

thank you for your help! This 2.5D I knew , but I mean your explanation for the cam setup. I found it again, included in your tutorial making a 3D game - the default cam!
