(Dumb) 3D view question!

Stewy1 · 03-21-15, 08:43 AM

Hi mates,

Long time no hear - I thought I'd dust off the old CDs for DW and try it on my new rig!

Thanks for all of the tips on this forum for getting DW to work on W8 and with getting DWX_RA going - it looks fantastic!

Quick question - one of the things I remember from years ago was the function where 3D view would follow your sub, but if you pushed a button, the "view" would remain stationary and the player-sub would keep going.

Which button is that again? (I hope it's not a Sub Command thing and my memory is terrible!)

Thanks guys for staying true to this game all these years!

On the 2D map, deselect your sub (single left click else where on the map).
