Something weird happened. While I was playing a game of chase, using the left and right arrow keys to both control my actions AND cam-chase where I was going, everything suddenly changed. Now I have to cam-chase my actions and turn left/right separately, which doesn't work well at all. I can hardly maneuver at all.

I've tried every cam option to make it so that when I turn, the camera turns with me, but it won't work. I've also tried putting it back to where I can turn my character and the camera at the same time, but that won't work either.

It's incredibly difficult to play now.

Any suggestions on how to get this back to the original setting, where I can turn my character and the camera at the same time again?

If i understud well, I believe your problem can be solved by just presing the right control key.
good luck

You may want to try out which mode your in, If you go into either chase, free, first person or fixed mode, you can probably get the setting you want.  Go to options > controls to change it. Try first person mode, you may prefer it.

Nope, nothing's changed.

See, before this issue, if I pressed W to move forward and the left or right arrow key at the same time, I'd move perfectly in the direction I wanted to and the camera would follow me.

Now, in other to do this, I have to press W for forward, the left or right arrow key to have the camera follow me, and then S or D to be able to move left or right. It's not in sync anymore. Both commands separated and I'm not sure how. It's a pain, especially since S and D really don't move left or right very well...it's awkward, very fast, and they'll move me too far in one direction or the other. I really can't run normally anymore, I look silly and it takes a while to get where I want, especially since I can't see where I'm going.

Regardless of the camera mode I pick, the camera will NOT move with me when I change direction. Make sense? It won't follow the direction I choose. So, I'll move forward and turn left. When I turn left, the camera stays straight, my character turns left, and I no longer see where I'm going unless I move my camera manually. This happens in every mode.

It's even more frustrating because the camera is slower to follow than my character is to move. I can't keep them in sync even if I try. For example, if I move my character left using S while move the camera left using the left arrow, my body turns faster than the camera does. I'll fall off cliffs because I never saw the cliff.

It's a pain. :(

Arg, it must have been a weird glitch, please write back, if it occurs again. Though, at the moment I don't think there is much you can do to control it. Sorry hun.
