Here is a basic one:

Melee Initialization
????Events
????????Time - Every 0.05 seconds of game time
????????Map initialization
????Conditions
????Actions
????????Camera - Set Player 1 (Red)'s camera Angle of attack to -30.00 over 0.00 seconds
????????Camera - Set Player 1 (Red)'s camera Height Offset to 100.00 over 0.00 seconds
????????Camera - Set Player 1 (Red)'s camera Distance to target to 350.00 over 0.00 seconds
????????Camera - Lock camera target for Player 1 (Red) to Paladin 0000 <gen>, offset by (0.00, 45.00) using The unit's rotation

The only problem is the camera doesn't rotates with the unit for some reason. I'll see what I can do.

Here is how it looks in-game:

[abdumac]

so have u found ow the rotating problem?

You could set the trigger to make it so that every .05 seconds, or so, the camera rotates to the character's view. I've done it loads of times. And it's better to make it so that the camera rotates over 1 second or so, just to make it flow more smoothly.

Camera- Set Player 1 (Red)'s camera Rotation to (Facing of (Triggering unit)) over 1.00 seconds

I tried that - it didn't change anything for some reason...
nevermind
It works.
