I'm trying to make a game where you look down on the character. Does anyone know how to do this?

/////////////////////////////Over Head View///////////////////////////
VIEW OverHeadView {
POS_X 120;
POS_y 4;
SIZE_X 80;
SIZE_Y 80;
LAYER 1.1;
DIAMETER 0;

}
SKILL CenterMeOH { X 5; Y 0; Z 0; }

ACTION my_OverHeadView {
IF (OverHeadView.VISIBLE == ON){
SET OverHeadView.VISIBLE,OFF;
} ELSE {
SET OverHeadView.VISIBLE,ON;
}
WHILE (1) {
CenterMeOH.X = 10;
CenterMeOH.Y = 0;
CenterMeOH.Z = 0;
MOVE ME,CenterMeOH,nullskill;
WAIT 1;

OverHeadView.X = player.X;
OverHeadView.Y = player.Y;
OverHeadView.Z = player.Z + 200;
OverHeadView.PAN = 0;
OverHeadView.TILT = -90;
OverHeadView.ROLL = 0;
}
}
ON_O my_OverHeadView;

I found this somewhere

where do i come across putting this in?

I have tried this code and it merely makes a small mini-map window of the overhead view while the rest stays in first person. Does anyone know how to make it the entire view, not just a window? Im just a stinkin' newbie.

------------------
Arg.

Change the position and size of the view:

POS_X 0;
POS_y 0;
SIZE_X 640;
SIZE_Y 480;

Set the default view off and on to save framerate:

IF (OverHeadView.VISIBLE == ON){
SET OverHeadView.VISIBLE,OFF;
Camera.VISIBLE = ON;
} ELSE {
SET OverHeadView.VISIBLE,ON;
Camera.VISIBLE = OFF;
}

again, where do i put this in?

Just put it in your level script.

How do I get the camera to be higher up in the sky? (higher above the character). This camera is so low, I can hardly see anything around the character. Hehe.

OverHeadView.Z = player.Z + 200;// change this value

Thanks. I tried adding your code to disable the normal camera, but everytime I do, I get an error, or the screen flashes between the two views. Any ideas?
