Get a new perspective on SL, literally!

SL's default camera sits high in the air above your avatar, several metres in fact! This removes you, the SL user, from the immersion you would get if your camera was closer to your avatar's eye level. This also causes a lot of problems for builders, as the camera sitting so high up makes ceilings under 3-4metres a problem. This, in turn, contributes to people building huge double or triple scale buildings, and makes SL appear a lot smaller than it actually is.

This HUDis intended as a quick way to preview my improved camera settings. If you like the new view, you can then follow the instructions over on my blog and change the camera settings right in the viewer itself, no HUD necessary!

If you enjoy the new camera placement and agree this would benefit SL greatly, be sure to head over to the SL Jira and vote for it!

Great product of you are walking on the ground in sl- but not for riding, it doesn't take in account the height adjustment. If you are on the ground your camera preforms exactly as advertised! Makes the view sooooo MUCH better- thanks for a great product and sharing it with the rest of us.

Just the widget I was looking for. It takes a bit of scripting knowhow to put your camera exactly where you want it, but I had it up and running in about 5 minutes. And hey, it's full-perm, and FREE! Anyone who runs with a large (or small) AV owes it to themselves to pick this thing up before Ms. Patton comes to her senses and starts charging for it. ;)

2 thumbs and a tailtip way up from this reviewer!
