Placing a camera inside a Vehicle (No CA and no free camera)

[Ghostrida9]

Hey folks,

shoort question, is it possible to place a camera inside a driving verhicle, like a cockpit view where i can look around?. I'm not talkin bout the free camera F11. I need this for a decent mission and video. the "driving a car" type camera.

 

Thanks

Hi,
Any news on that camera position?
I am interested in making an aerial refueling video with the classic view from the boom controller's position.

 

EDIT:
No need! Found it!

one methode is to change the Driver sight position:

 

go to:

C:\DCS_World_OpenBeta\CoreMods\tech\TechWeaponPack\Database\vehicles\Tanks

or

C:\DCS_World_OpenBeta\Scripts\Database\vehicles\Tanks

 

there you find lua files like "T-55.lua"

 

wride in the script

GT.driverViewConnectorName = {"DRIVER_POINT", offset = {0.05, 0.0, 0.0}}

to

GT.driverViewConnectorName = {"DRIVER_POINT", offset = {0.05, 3.0, 0.8}}

 

this change the Driver sight position, find your position when you try diffrent coordinates
