Camera presets would be nice to have

[lucagrabacr]

I know the lindens probably don't read these forums, but like most of the younger people that I know of who never used Second Life before thinks there's something off with the default camera placement.

I mean like I'm personally okay with it, used it on my first 3 years on SL until I know how to edit the camera preset on Firestorm through the developer menu. (which is tedious to do)

I don't think it'd be too hard for LL or the Firestorm team to implement an easier way to change the camera preset a'la Nirans / Black Dragon

Just a thought

You don't have to use the advanced menu in Firestorm, it's been in prefs for years.

For the Linden made viewer this is about the only way: http://blog.nalates.net/2011/07/24/second-life-camera-position-tips/

If you would like to see camera presets entered, file a JIRA Feature Request.

You are right about the Lindens not reading the forum. There are parts of it that some Lindens watch. As best I can tell ANSWERS is not one of them.

Of course we read the forum ... we're just quiet and retiring by nature

You can't retire yet, you've got work to do!

One of the best sets of camera offsets for SL were defined by Penny Patton. With her permission. I produced a tutorial on them back in 2011, and you can find here: https://modemworld.me/tutorials__trashed/camera-offsets-penny-patton/
