I had a question regarding the 3rd person camera. I was wondering if it was possible to chage how high the camera is from the player and how far behind the camera is from the player. Also how hard it is to actually switch the camera from 1st person to 3rd person. Also, in 3rd person camera view, when you run straight, the camera follows, what about when you turn. the camera still follow?

Thanks fir the help

cheers
