crouching

[gothikal1]

Is it possible to crouch while using the fps cam, and if so, how would one go about it?

Code: Select all

  irr::vector3df vPosition = camera->getPosition();
  vPosition.Y -= 50; // Or whatever the difference between standing and crouching
camera->setPosition(vPosition);

Then, when the person lets go of the key, raise the height again.

what about the level. I tried that and it doesn't crouch because the level is in the way

You'll need to also change the size of the player for collision purposes.

Check out the collision tut and see the point where 3 numbers defin the collision ellipsoid and just change those when crouched.

Without doing this your player is still say 6 feet tall but you are just positioning his/her eyes halfway down rather then "physically" crouching.
