Rotate player with his camera

[JAY.ANN]

Is it real to make player rotate with his camera as it realized in GTA VC and GTA III?

I tried to use getCameraRotation() but it didn't give a good result - player had a right rotation, but his animations were broken and inverted.

I guess it's all about the game engine's features. I noticed that while the player is on ground and uses camera rotation as rotZ coordinate he bugs himself.

Not sure, but this is how you can get the camera rotation:

local cameraElement = getCamera()

--

local x, y, z = getElementRotation(cameraElement)

--

It's not the answer - player won't stand on the ground correctly

It is a bit tricky, but not impossible. And if the rotation is inverted, then invert the rotation.

But yes, changing the engine is not possible, there will always be some limitations.
