Ok so I'm working on a MotorStorm racing level, and the biggest problem I have right now is the camera. Basically I want the player to be on a controlinator far from the track but I want the camera to focus on the moving car. Problem is it doesn't really want to. I have the enlarge the zone so that it covers the entire track (which is quite big by the way). Is there any simpler way to do so?

Try placing the camera onto the vehicle itself and connect it to the controlinator, that I think should work.

Yeah, the game camera has issues. What you need to do is use a movie camera and put it on a sackbot's circuitboard (for some reason, the black bars don't appear if you do this), then remote control the sackbot, and put the sackbot in the car's controllinator. Kinda complicated, but it's the only way to make it work.

I don't think there needs to be a sackbot. And by "don't think," I mean "I know there doesn't need to be." In my pac-man level, the gameboard is far away from my sackboy. I have a movie camera at the gameboard, and it's activated by the "Controlinator Active" output on my transmitting controlinator. The black bars don't show up here, either.

I've got a question in a similar vein, and didn't want to start a whole new thread: If I have a level, let's say a racing level, and I connect a movie camera on a car to the Controlinator Active input. Will that camera active for ONLY the player in that controlinator? Take, for instance, this setup: At the start of my racing level, I have all players enter a Controlinator which will remotely control the Race Car. Mounted to the race car is a movie camera. If Player A gets in Controlinator #1 (Camera to Car 1) and Player B gets into Controlinator #2 (Camera to Car 2), will they maintain their OWN views of the level from their car?

Try connecting the battery logic item to the camera, this may work because it will trick the camera as being constantly on?

If you're going the remote control route, you'll need to use a movie camera, not a game camera. You'll want to set it to infinite hold time so that it stays with the vehicle the whole time. The downside is that a movie camera will affect all players, not just the one in the controllinator, so it's no good for versus racing.
