Just as the title says! ;This is a very basic 3rd person camera, very, very basic! Hopefully you might be able to learn somthing ;if you have any questions ask. this isnt the cleanest code ever, just so you know. ;set graphics mode Graphics3D 800,600,16,2 ;set collision types Const collground = 1 Const collguy = 2 ;create a light light = CreateLight() ;create our player Global guy = CreateCube() PositionEntity guy,0,5,0 EntityType guy,collguy ;create a camera and its parent the player camera = CreateCamera(guy) PositionEntity camera,0,5,-9 ;create a plane to walk on plane = CreatePlane() EntityType plane,collground ;create a really bad texture to put on the player tex = CreateTexture(256,256) SetBuffer TextureBuffer(tex) For i = 0 To 100 Color Rnd(0,255),Rnd(0,255),Rnd(0,255) Oval Rnd(0,256),Rnd(0,256),Rnd(1,70),Rnd(1,70) Next ;apply the texture EntityTexture plane,tex ;set collisions Collisions collguy,collground,2,3 ;set the buffer SetBuffer BackBuffer() ;entering main loop While Not KeyDown(1) ;move the player If KeyDown(200) MoveEntity guy,0,0,.1 If KeyDown(208) MoveEntity guy,0,0,-.1 If KeyDown(203) TurnEntity guy,0,1,0 If KeyDown(205) TurnEntity guy,0,-1,0 ;if the player is collideing with the ground make him fall, you can use this for jumping If Not EntityCollided(guy,collground) MoveEntity guy,0,-.1,0 EndIf UpdateWorld RenderWorld ;write some stuff Color 255,255,255 Text 10,10,"Use the arrow keys to move."
