               there is a key above the "Enter" key, which has two symbols on it:  | & \\, this toggles your camera, maybe you are hitting this by accident before you die or after you die?



Unless your talking about scripting changes you made, that would be my guess, if it's script related though, you have to post the script for us to fix it for you.

               i am guessing it would be the ondeath script, if so then here it is.

   This is still the default NWN player death script.

   It does a lot of stuff you don't really need/want.

   It does not do stuff you really need/want.

   You need to rework this.

   The horse section should be fine.

I looked over the death script, I did not see anything there that woud cause it.
Here are a few questions that my help someone find you an answer.

Does this happen in more then one module? 

Is it every game or just one game it happens in? 

If you play the OC does it still happen?

Even if you fail to find out why this is happening you do not have to go into the options to change the camera mode.  By default the * on the number pad  toggles the camera mode.  If like me you play on a lap top without a number pad you can change the toggle key to any one you like in the game options under 'key controlls'

               i looked for the crawl script and could not find it (maybe i am looking for the wrong thing), i looked for a script called "crawl" in the script box then i clicked on all resorce cuz i dont have a script called crawl in my mod (that i put in) but i think i am looking for it the wrong way, i think that the crawl may be part of another script? any help with this would be appreciated.

               hit the open script button, then type crawl in the name. if it is not in your mod,, then hit the all resourses button to the left. It should come up if you have it.

               If I had to guess, it might be some type of animation for when the PC dies. Try removing the line in your script that calls for it to run, and test it.

               Question, are you running a on bleed system in your mod? Or is this happening in every mod/game you play.

               You still have not answered if you are having this happen in just one module or all games you are playing in.  If it is happening in all modules that you play my guess is that it is something you have placed in your override folder.

               Sorry bout not responding sooner, I had a comp problem this afternoon. First, I got to ask, what happened within the last week. Did you add a hak, Add overrides? or add erfs to your game? Logic says that if it just started in the last week, then something you did in that week is the cause.

               sorry bout not answering all the questions, i have been fixing a few things in the mod, it is only happening in the one mod and i have not added anything in the over ride or hak folders, it only started happening after the ondeath script was cleaned up for me (the script above) but i can not see why it is changing the camera angle in that script.and i have only added 2 erfs but they were just a couple of monsters that a friend made for the mod.

thanks again for the help
