ok, i have a camera loaded a scene, and now it seems that everything is smaller than my character...(camera)....whats the best way to in escence make the camera smaller so I can walk through my world instead of stepping ON it...lol im a giant apparently

Why on earth would you make the camera smaller? Scale up the scene!


Ross C(Posted 2009) [#3]
The camera essentially cannot be scaled, as it is an infinitely small point in space. As Stevie says, scale your world and character, or move the camera closer :o)

that makes sense....is there an easy way to just scale everything in a scene without doing it in the scene editor program? and everythign be in the same perspectice once they are scaled?

Create a pivot first of all, then parent everything you load in, to that pivot. Make sure the pivot is positioned at 0,0,0 (where it sits by default).

Then, scale the pivot, move the pivot ... etc etc and everything else will follow suit.
