Changing camera mode during spectate.

[tma]

Hi,

I do the scripting for a DD/DM server that uses the race resource, and one of the feature requests that's come up recently is the ability to change camera mode while spectating, as you can while playing (usually with 'v' or 'home' which are bound to 'change_camera').

Now, I can't seem to make this happen. On join or death, spectate seems to stay with your current view mode until you (re)spawn. Is there a way to do this ? Or is this just how MTA works ? I appreciate I could go to the trouble of modifying race to provide these camera modes (using the MTA API) but I'd just like an easy way to use the same functionality as when alive. Is that possible ?

Thanks.

The only way to do this currently is to script your own camera modes.

Thanks for the reply, Hankey.

But that's a bummer. Is there a reason for this ?
