Title: First Person Shooter like camera control with accelerometer
Post by: 32kda on May 28, 2012, 02:40:14 pm

Hi Guys.
I'm trying to wite simple shooting game using jpct-AE. Thought about making view/aim control with the accelerometer, by rotating camera to some angle after turning the device around some (x or y) axis, like it's done in some racing games.

But I can't get a logics of accelerometer values and camera rotation angles, looking right-left works OK (used cam.rotateCameraY), but trying to add up-down looking using rotateCameraX goofs camera navigation, camera begins to rotate strangely.

Can you please give a link for some sample code for such navigation or explain how to do that.
Best regards, D.A.
