Problem with movement

mythosdefiant

I hope this is the right forum for this.

With NCSoft killing CoX, I decided to give CO a try. Unfortunately, I have a problem with the way the camera and movement interact. When I move around with the arrow keys, I want the camera to stay behind my character's back so that I'm always looking at the scene in front of my character's face. I tried playing with the settings last night, but I couldn't find a way to do that while using the arrow keys to move.

It's possible to get the camera and movement to work together decently using the mouse, but trying it for a few minutes was enough to tell me that mouse movement aggravates the arthritis in my wrist.

Is there a way for me to set the camera up properly to move with the arrow keys in this game? It's the only way I'll be able to play.

I found out that changing the left and right arrow keys to "turn left" and "turn right" instead of "move left" and "move right" is close enough to CoX movement for me to play.

Hey,
Found this solution myself through trial and error. Ha ha, nobody seemed willing to answer this basic how do we question. Glad you found the answer, see you in Millennium.

There are options under the controls menu to have the camera "snap back" when you move or not... I don't recall the exact name of the option, but it's there.
