spectator mode

[old.grounded_dreams]

If you play UT as a spectator, i can only view players from outside their bodies (floating around them).

Is there anyway to actually view from 'there point on view', ie through their eyes. Like when, you you play the game usually?

Thanks in advance.

Yep there is

Left click until your on the player you'd like to spectate, then bring up the console (tilde key as default or Tools --> System Console) and type: behindview 0. This takes you 'on board' with the player allowing you to see what they see.

To return to the outside body view type: behindview 1 at the console.

Hope this helps

Yes,

Thanks for the help

This is a bit weird.

Most of the time the behindview 1, works a trick. But every once in a while, I change to a player and put in the command (within console). Then the view changes to either -

upside down

or becomes the p-o-v of the players hands, so most of the screen is taken up with the weapon.

If I then change to another player, it works fine again.

Strange, any ideas?

Yes m8, I've noticed this too but the good folks of BarrysWorld have found a UT utility that should sort it. You can get it from:

ftp://ftp.barrysworld.com/pub/games/unrealtournament/misc/util/specfix.zip

This should fix the upside down bug.

Dunno about the players hand thing, maybe this fixes it too
