Default I've lost the camera. - 04-17-2008, 04:51 AM

I was using Alice to make Shakespear's the Tempest for a competition and suddenly the camera has dissapeared. Is the anyway I can't get it back? Or is there anyother way I can get the camera to move from place using the code. Please help becuase the world has to be handed in on Monday. Thanks.

In the Object tree view, right click (to get a menu) on camera -> methods -> move to -> {some object in your scene} Then you can pull back the camera and maybe move it up (if the object's "centre" is on the ground) to see that object. In code you can use the same method to move the camera of course.

Hope that helps

I also suggest that in the future (isn't hindsight great ) you drop a dummy object on the camera when you get you're initial scene set up. That way you can always return to that setup when the camera later gets lost via one of the many, many ways that can happen. (Note that this is one of the features of Storytelling Alice.)

Now, do you mean you lost your view of where you want it or there is no camera period?

I mean I can still move the camera around and have it move to dummy objects, but it's gone from the object tree.
