[QUOTE="smbhax, post: 66191, member: 396"] This isn't really a request since I don't expect it to be added to the current incarnation of TPA, but one thing I would like to see in a pinball video game some day is a camera setting based on the height of the simulated player, ie you tell the game that you're 6'2" (or eh whatever that is in metric for you metric people), and it positions the camera to be where the eyes of someone of that height, in shoes (adding an inch or so to the height I suppose), would be seeing the table from in the typical pinball-playing stance. (Maybe even have several stance settings to choose from if you want to get ridiculously fancy. : P) Something like that would make much more sense to me than having arbitrary presets that mostly seem to correspond to the viewpoints of only rather short people, or insects sitting near the bottom of the table glass (or, worse, flying around over the glass to follow the ball : pp); if it's a pinball simulation I want to be able to play the simulated table from the angle at which I would play the real table.
