Coordinates help - sherlock - 04.10.2011

I'm not too sure how to get co-ordinates for a tutorial. What i mean is when you have a tutorial on a rp server,it has the camera in the air looking at the place and this needs 2 sets of coordinates (SetPlayerCameraPos and SetPlayerCameraLookAt) But since these are different co-ords to XYZ i dont know how to get them.

Oh there is euhmm a fs made by Ryder i think it will start making you a class with the SetPlayerCameraLookAt and everything, just hit search and put this "Class Maker"

for SetCameraPos - I use airbreak, then /save.
For Setcameralookat - go on the ground,or air or when do you want it to look at and /save
It will show look at the coords of SETCAMERALOOKAT,from SETCAMERAPOS

SetPlayerCameraPos
• This is the point where the camera will be.
• Just image that this is you with a photo. It will be the pos where you are standing.
• Parameters: (playerid, Float:X, Float:Y ,Float:Z)

SetPlayerCameraLookAt
• This is the point where the camera looks to.
• Imagine that this is the point you want to take a photo of. The camera will center this point and look at it.
• Parameters: (playerid, Float:X, Float:Y ,Float:Z)


All in all:
First get the pos where your camera is supposed to be (SetPlayerCameraPos) and then go to the point where the camera should look at (SetPlayerCameraLookAt).

Theoretically they could, but I don't know how this will look ingame.
