I'm looking to use a created .obj file as my bounds for a camera using
the FirstPersonManipulator.
I'm having trouble limiting the input to not translate the camera's y
coordinates, as well as forcing the camera to no enter into certain
bounds. I'm looking for the first person manipulator's source so I can
change how it effects the gcamera element I have, as well as give it
some bounds. Any pointers on how to do this? Thanks for your help!

I do this by creating a first person manipulator, reading its frame() every time step, and then extracting what I want from it. For example, simply overriding the Y value.
If you want 2D movement it is also pretty easy to ignore FirstPersonManpulator and just write your own control scheme in GApp::onUserInput(). FPM is a handy tool, not a requirement for a G3D program.
