Also note that the character's vertical aiming is unrestricted, so if you want to aim the camera extra-high or extra-low, the player camera won't be reflecting the actual elevation of the camera's "body": in that case, you may be better off going into manual camera mode 1 again, so as to look at the character a bit from the side, or roughly along the desired axis.

Using the current settings above is not possible to capture a camera that is looking 90º above or below the character (perpendicular camera view to the ground/sky). You can actually achieve these types of cameras using the following commands:
''Top-Ground camera:''
cm_canter_unarmed=1.0
cm_canter_weapon=1.0
''Ground-Top camera''
cm_canter_unarmed=-1.0
cm_canter_weapon=-1.0


Once the orientation is correct, enter '''make_corpse shpadoinkle'''. This will create a file in the Oni folder called lvl_#_shpadoinkle_corpse.dat, that looks a bit like this (and a bit like [[CRSA]], not surprisingly):
