  • Invert perspective in Gentleman camera mode?

    Posted by Mike Williams on October 16, 2013 at 5:54 pm

    Hello, thanks for reading.

    I am trying to achieve a look that is exactly like what you get using the “Gentleman” camera perspective mode, but inverted.

    In other words, if the camera in Gent. mode is looking at a rectangle, you see the front, top, and right sides.

    What I want is to be able to see the front, bottom, and left sides. That make sense?

    I was able to get close by using the default “Perspective” camera mode, pulling the camera waaay back and bumping the focal length waaay up, then rotating the rectangle to get the desired effect. (its close, but not perfect)

    However, this feels very sloppy and precarious. Is there a simple way to invert the look of “Gentleman” mode?

    Thanks!
    -Mike

    I don’t think it’s possible to rotate the axonometric cameras. Instead you would have to put your scene inside a null and rotate the null.
