Default Re: 3d battle scenes are looking horrible! :(

Having played Doms I, I must say that the 3D terrain rendering, along with the all new particles engine is a big overhaul.

I'm unable to figure what you can do with the camera though. Does you have a movable camera to start with? Which axe can you tilt? I suppose you always see the battlefied from a side, as the sprites are made like this, but is it easy to see where the units are positioned from the viewing angle we always see in the screenshots? The benefit of the top down 2D view was that you were seeing precisely the unit positionning as battle progressed. With this side view, I wonder if you dont just see a big pool of unit ???
