Title: Grand Theft Auto 3 problem
Post by: AK47 on March 02, 2013, 10:25:36 am: Yo,

Last night I bought GTA3 cause I felt like I missed playing it, so I bought it over Steam. And since I have a widescreen laptop (1920x1080), I changed my settings to widescreen and the size of the "gamescreen" to that!

The graphics and stuff is awesome and the widescreen is perfect, but one thing, when I'm not in a "tight space" (a "room" with a low roof" or in a car, I get the GTA2 playing feeling, I see the game from above.

Grand Theft Auto 3 bug (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Afhf7jAahs4#ws)

I would like to be able to play normal so I wonder if anyone got a solution on this?
It's a bit annoying to play like this, if I want to do that, I would have installed GTA2 :redface:

Help!

This is your problem. Your on-foot camera is set to the helicopter view. The lower roof areas force the camera down when the helicopter view can't display your location well enough. The vehicle driving view is also separate from the on-foot one, hence why it changes when you enter a car.

No worries man. It's a commonly-confusing mistake because GTA III offered the camera view as a nostalgic testament to GTA I and II.
