I tried that, but he moves in that direction. Don't know if i'm explaining it right, I just want to look around or behind my char, not have him move toward that direction.

thx

I don't know if you guys are understanding.

He wants to look AT his character, while his character is moving.
Not just from behind, but all around.
Z will only flip back and forth from front to back.

The only suggestion I heard that might work is press on the ground far away and try swivelling the camera then.

I guess, you might be right. I just thought there was an easier way to do that. For me, I find it really convenient to be able to look behind and around my character while enemies or party members are chasing me.

thx for the input.

I just tested it out. If you go into Options, then Control Setup, you will see an action named Free Camera.

I assigned it to my End key, hit autorun, and was able to hold the key while I held the right mouse button and could move the camera all over.

However, you can't control run direction while doing it. So you might just run into a wall or something if you're trying to escape a mob. I suppose if you're fast you could release the assigned key and change directions, providing you released with the camera behind you again.

Anyhow, test it out.

I want to point out that I have disabled mouse walking. Using a feature like the one above might be easier with mouse walking on.

you can hit R to autorun or you can follow someone else, then you're able to look around all you want and it won't change which way your character runs.
