Set Camera Range 1,5000


Load Object "Man.3ds",1

Do


X = Object Position X(1)

Z = Object Position Z(1)

Y# = Get Ground Height(1,X,Z)+13

Set Camera To Follow X+25,Y,Z+50,25,75,75,1,0

If Upkey()=1 Then Move Object 1,2

in your favorite 3d package when u open the model is a centrepoint widget. its a symbol on screen that shows the centrepoint as well as the 3 dimensions xyz. move it where u want and re export out.

If no-one gives your an answer to a question you have asked, consider:- Is your question clear.- Did you ask nicely.- Are you showing any effort to solve the problem yourself
