Isometric view for Modeler About Truespace Archives These pages are a copy of the official truespace forums prior to their removal somewhere around 2011.

Isometric view for Modeler // The Garage 1  |   Order by default Post by Emmanuel // Nov 1, 2007, 10:03am Emmanuel Total Posts: 439 This is a very rough version though, but it works. 1- Unzip the isoview file, 2- Place the isoview.tsx file in your tS/tsX folder, 3- Place the isocam1 file at the root of your C: drive, 4- Load the tsX in Modeler. A left clic on the icon creates an isometric camera in the scene. Use the FindCamera plugin to view the scene from it. Don't try to move/rotate that camera or even to zoom with the mouse wheel : it will not respond or the View Widget will start its jercky dance. Only use the Eye Zoom icon to zoom in/out. Anyway, this is not a view to work in : PE and lots of things do not respond. It is supposed to be used for RENDERING only. I plan to add 3 more icons : one for each view (North East, North West, South East, South West), but there is also one feature I would like to implement for that tool and I don't know how to do this :o : It is an object check feature : if there is already an object named isocam1 in the scene, then the left-clic will not load/create a new one in the scene. Also, it could be nice to be able to pan the view. We could use the right-clic action to invoque an Eye Move command. The difference with the current Eye View will be the speed : because the isometric camera is loacted very far in the 3D space, it has to move extremely fast to achieve a visible change at close up. I attach the source files, in C++. If anyone wants to take a look at it :) Post by splinters // Nov 1, 2007, 10:24am splinters Total Posts: 4148 Looking forward to trying this emmanuel, you know how much I like this view...;)
