I will get it, it isn't that bad.
Not that I have a semi working peek I understand things better.
Yes I agree about the models peeking through walls.
However if you adjust the bounding box, this should prevent them from
sticking their head through things.

/me exit from shadows
I have tried that thing on my engine moths ago. And result on a dificult
thing, also because I sux as a coder.
http://telejano.berlios.de/option/rollhead1.jpg
I suggest contacting other moders guy with already working code and ask
for a copy paste. I see some Q3 mods that already have this feature
working nicelly.. but I forgot the name of the proyect... a clone of CS
with better tactical enhancements.
Can be a feature too much dificult to code by frute force, or even
slighty crappy with paper and patience.
If you move the head to much, you can also end moving the head inside
solids, that its a bad thing. You mai also need to figure out the better
way to restore the head position if the player move..
argh.. maybe its not that dificult to code, but dificult to figure out
what code.

After looking at the peeking I am starting to think this would be more
like
a side step left / right...
I think rolling the player 5-10 degress right / left will probably make
the
motion a little better.
Would the same apply to set the roll ?
I know I wouldn't use SetEyeOffset but I quess it is basically the same
thing just rolling the player views right or left.
Kind of like how when you flipped the jeep you got stuck in that weird
angle
lol..
Ill keep playing

Glad I could help
Its the vising/pvs/phs info still correct if you move ViewOffset?
hmm .. lol I really hvae no idea about this, but I'd guess the view
offset is taken into account when updating this info.

Thank you very much for the pointers Hasan.
I have the peeking working, although now that I have it working I may
change
it so it is more of a roll of the player instead of just shifting the
camera
over.
But thanks again for the help...
