[Virtools] Re: Banking Camera

Hi,

Rolling a Target Camera is not possible.
You should use instead a free camera, and make it "Look At" your ship (or a
little bit in front, it's generally better).
Unlike Target Cameras, Free Cameras can be freely oriented, and even rotated
around their Z axis.

Hope it will help you.

Araya
