i'm not a Tiny Avatar, but i am quite short. i was wondering if it's possible to have the default third-person camera's normal position be maybe a foot lower? the way it is right now, i must angle the camera downwards, otherwise it cuts off my lower legs. if the walking camera could be lower by a foot on the z-axis, then this wouldn't be a problem.

i'm asking here, and not in a more specific forum because i'm not sure if there is a script to alter this on a worn prim, a hud that can do this, some debug thing in the Advanced menu, anything.

I'm not sure if there's a way to lower it by default, but I know that there's a hud out there that lowers the camera to a child's POV. Try checking around some of the adoption agencies or other places where child avatars hang out.

thanks for the advice, but i've already checked those in hopes to find one (despite not being a child avatar myself), but had no luck.

EDIT: found this on XstreetSL: https://www.xstreetsl.com/modules.php?name=Marketplace&file=item&ItemID=621136

it SEEMS to do what i want, i'll try it later, once i can put more money into my xstreet account :p

just to make sure, as i often misread these things: does this appear to be the right thing to you people reading this too?
