OpenMW-CS Jumping In Orbital Mode

Post by Frik »

Is this intentional behavior or is there a bug here?

I've dropped a video here that demonstrates the behavior.

By the way, the first time I switch to orbital mode, there is no jumping. The jumping occurs in subsequent switches between camera & orbital.

When I select Orbital View, seems like it's just returning back to the last position it was in when leaving Orbital View. Is that the way it's supposed to be?

Absolutely not. Switching into orbit mode can change the camera orientation. But neither switching in or out should change the position.

Ok, thanks Zini. I should probably file a bug report then. 8-)

Can someone change the target version to openmw-cs in the following bug report? I think I tagged it incorrectly.

Thanks!

You're back for real or was this just an accident? :) Welcome back anyhow, even if this was just a one-time thing!

I appreciate the welcome. No promises, but I plan to work on a couple of features and bugs.

After fighting the GUI for 8 months, I couldn't get this fix compiled fast enough. :mrgreen:

I see that it's now been merged.

Thanks, again!
