I don’t know how I managed to do this, but yesterday the perspective of my avatar changed so I was seeing things in the first person rather than the third, which is what I am used to. This made things much more real – it actually felt like I was seeing and doing the things my avatar was, as opposed to just watching.

When I began to dance with someone and tried various other things[!] however, the perspective returned to the third person once again. I wondered if it was possible to maintain the first person perspective at all times? It would make the whole experience much more realistic and I think attract a lot more VIP members. The whole first-person experience is, after all, what most people crave. If this is already possible and I have simply missed it, please forgive my lack of knowledge – I am very new to the world of RLC so everything is still very much of a learning curve.

Hi
Right now you can manipulate your view with the scroll button of your mouse (uhm I am hungarian not sure this is the right word) but same function with the K and L key...actually zoom in and out
I hope it helps

Good question. I know you used to be able to stay in first person mode, but I've noticed since the last patch that I get booted out to 3rd person when I interact with something. Not sure if that's here to stay or not...

The first and 3rd person view tab is gone...I asked some higher ups about it and it is definately gone. Use the k and l keys, just as stated above...to zoom in and out..make sure to click outside the chat box first.
