zoom camera out

[Surferkid993]

I am confused at how to use the camera triggers and my big delima is zooming out while the camera is locked on a unit and while it is not.
Im not sure if I need a diffrent trigger for both.

Thanks

i think you can use Camera - Pan Camera With Interpolated Height action...just specify the height you want. and if you want it locked on a unit, just add Lock Camera Target To Unit after.

I used that, but the hieght never changed.

try stopping the camera, then doing what he said. It should unlock from the unit, then zoom out, then relock.

Ok so I got it zoomed out but everything becomes black as I zoom out.

Ah, you zoomed out too far. If you REALLY wanna be zoomed out that far (WARNING: some peoples video cards may have problems with your map if you do) then set the clipping distance for the camera to a bigger number.

Second thought: When I tried to make a FPS demo thingy, the screen also went all black, and I never found out why. The game was still playable, worked fine, just couldnt see anything. Camera was in the right spot, because I could predict where other units would be and select them. I have NO IDEA how this happens or how to fix it if this is your problem.
