Instead of having just to view from top when adding items I'd like to be able to view from side or a better angle when places items in the map like when making a bridge across water. or is there a K to hit to change the view maby I didn't know about. or even a bride maker tradition that will allow you to ad parts going across that will keep it same height as when I make a water the bridge peaces want to go lower as the terrain lowers.

This would be a better forum for your questions about classic FPSC.

But I'm asking about the feature being added to Reloaded isn't that for only the classic editor?

I believe you just press F9 while in test mode.

I'm talking about build mode where you are adding items when you are making the level

You can add items in the active editing mode in test games though? you are limited though to only entities however that you have already introduced into the map.



Go to test mode then press F9, it will allow you to edit the map from a first person view. You can place items as well.

i agree with this, a free camera in standard editor would be great, it's too easy to get tunnel vision in the f9 editor

I have to agree and will second this.



I would like to have more viewing ability as well when not in the F9 mode. While I agree that you can use F9 to edit in a first person view it does not give the "full picture" in my opinion. Please add a camera tilt feature so that we may have better precision when adding/removing objects etc.
