But works fine for me.. where did you call the flag-set? can we see the code? as far as i remember, you can use
camera.flag2 |= ISOMETRIC;
, too.. But i don't know if that works - did you tried it with a second view?

Simply (works, tested): Make sure, that you don't reset flag anywhere. Play with arc, that will change camera distance. Plus, you should change positions and angles of camera yourself.

Everything i do doesn't change anything... set(camera, ISOMETRIC) does nothing, all things with a second view too. I do not reset the camera flags and even in a level with only one small WED block and no functions or actions it keeps on being perspective... maybe it doesn't work with the free version of A8???... here is my code:
#include <acknex.h>
#include <default.c>
function main()
{
level_load("Testlevel.wmb");
mouse_mode=4;
set(camera,ISOMETRIC);
wait(2);
}
by the way: It's NOT working...

oh... thanks
What I need is the 2D Projection of an 3D world like the 2D views of med, but rendered normal... is it posible to do that without Commercial,Pro or Extra?
(i'm actually saving money for one of them...)

Set camera.arc to a very small value, e.g. 5.
no science involved

and btw if ISOMETRIC is part of flag2, its not possible to use set, as this macro only modifies flag and NOT flag2
PS: where in the manual does it say, that this flag is only for Comercial?

ISOMETRIC
The view uses an orthogonal projection, rather than a perspective projection. The view frustum is not a cone, but a rectangular area with a size either given by the arc parameter, or by the left, right, bottom, up border parameters . This can be used for isometric games from a bird's view perspective, or for clipping with a rectangular view volume e.g. for PSSM shaders. The distance of the camera to an object does not affect its size on the screen in this mode; this causes far objects - f.i. the sky - to appear extremely magnified. LC
The "LC" at the end means it is from Comercial above...
