hi,

whenever i load a player model into my scene and set the camera to the position of this human model, i see an "eyeball" that hovers in front of the model and moves when i tried to move the model via my keys.

is this some sort of default 3dgs object?

please help.

thanks.

can you make a screenshot? its hard to get what you mean.

If I unstand you right, the problem is that the model isn´t completly invisible even if the camera is on your models position.
You have to set the camera genius in the players action.
It should look sth like this:
camera.genius = my;
Also search for genius in the manual.

You should just make the model invsiible. So in FPS the action should have

my.invisible = on;

Something I don't understand, is when you set the camera at the same coordinates as the model, what part of the model does it actually place the camera... In the center? Or at the top? Or the top right/left corner?

Open a model of type .mdl in MED. A camera set to the coordinates of a model would be placed relative to the location in the model where the infinite green tea appears in MED. The green axis in MED may represent the center of the model. If you vec_set(my.x, nullvector) and the MED green tea is in the center of the model the model will be centered in world space. If you vec_set(my.x, camera.x) and the MED green tea is in the center of the model, the camera will be placed in the center of the model. If a model of type .mdl has its coordinates set to my.x==6, my.y==6, my.z==6, then the green tea of the model is located at coordinates 6,6,6. Green tea should never be used to represent the "number of the beast"; if you attempt to represent the "number of the beast" with green tea, the engine assumes you want the "all-seeing-eye" in your level. This eye is also known as the "Conitec beastly all-seeing eye of infinity worship and green tea."
