to make halo ce a side scroller? inferno did it from above without a moving camera.. but i want to know if i can make it follow the player..

it would be possible, but probably difficult. That method wouldn't work either; you could see the player at first, but when he ran into the right side of the screen, the camera would just follow him like that so you couldn't see what was up ahead. However, if you're clever enough, the use of camera points and trigger volumes would work.

i got a idea on modacity gaigher made his h3 plasma turret camera go off of a node so i can do it maybe by making a node named camera or whatever thats where i want it so when he walks it comes with.... but idk i still need to make him not walk right and left and the up and down sight is gonna be hard to master...

its completely possible. I did a simmilar thing, but if you want the camera to follow the player then you may have to find a way to make a 3rd person camera. You may be able to have the player(invisible) ride a biped that looks like the player, then have the camara off to the side.

i got a idea have a node far away from u on the bipeds model.. and name it #camera then in the camera track make it go off that node but i got to tweak it tons for it to see the distance i want

it would be very difficult to aim at the enemy wouldnt it?

lol yep... but i can make it not aim left and right (somehow) just up and down. and all guns would have a laser so that would be your reticle... then i would have to take all the fp models out
