Hi Steven,

I have been experimenting with this with MonkyRegs and although I haven't
found the precise values for a perfect orthographic projection I find that
toying with the view distance will gradually change the perspective to
orthographic.

What I recommend is setting the disired distance from the center of your
scene (in actual camera coords) then use some pad buttons to change the view
distance this should give you a variable perspective/orthagraphic view (and
its how I intend to get my orthographic view working).
