Win2K, all I did last night was change my model type and now everytime I try to run a practice game, it starts/runs in what looks like a demo and I'm viewing the game in 3rd person through various bots, not first person.
I've re-booted, looked through various controls, tryed other types of matches, etc yet it doesn't switch back to normal. It's the same online too. I'm viewing everything though players cameras, not mine at all now. Pressing my mouse 1 button (fire normally) toggles me from one bot or players camera view to another and I can see different views by moving the mouse too as if I'm that player BUT I have no control myself, not playing.....just being a spectator. If I toggle though enough player views, I'll see "not viewing though your camera". I can then find another option through one of the F keys that lists all the players and I'm not one of them, not in the game at all. I'm a spectator only.

Apparently I'm in some game mode that I've never seen before but don't see how to switch out of it. I'm not seeing this info in the readme.txt files either.
Anyone else know anything about this?

Um go to player setup, where you changed the model, uncheck "spectator"
