LowRider88 Posted June 18, 2020 Posted June 18, 2020 Not sure if this has been suggested before. Some jets have a gun camera, which can take single pictures, a succession of pictures or a short video. Would it be possible to save these pics and videos in the users Saved Games folder, and have them assessable and reviewable from the main menu, and post mission briefing screen? They could be stored by date and time as part of file name. Would be great if they were not just user view screenshots and videos, but pics and videos from the perspective of the actual planes camera position. Not sure how technically possible this would be. This would really enhance the immersion of the camera operation in missions. It could also pave the way for combat, non-fighter modules, like dedicated reconnaissance planes like the RF-101, RB-57, U-2, etc.
LowRider88 Posted June 18, 2020 Author Posted June 18, 2020 Just an additional suggestion: For photo reconnaissance mission scoring, maybe there could be some calculation which takes into account the position of the plane with respect to the target to be photographed, including angle of plane, angle of camera on plane, distance to target, weather visibility level. And based on this calculation, the mission goals can be set to award a object completion if all the variables are met, and the picture is saved in the saved games folder.
