Camera views?


Recommended Posts

Hi all!

 

Got a few questions about the camera views and how to edit them.

 

As we see in the movie "Multi Role" we see the a camera view as it was a weapon on a payload. I´m trying to get a camera view where it's right between the 2 back wheels and in the middle. Trying to shot a scen with an SU-33 landing on the carrier.

Would look cool on the f-15 too when it's in a dogfight :icon_supe

Ya i asked this once too. Here are some directions on getting the views. I got them from getsno, the maker of that movie(i think)

 

Hello warthogmadman,

 

The view you are talking about is the F4 view wich i modified in the "server.lua" file(you find this in config/view/sever.lua)

Open this file with notepad and scroll down until you see these values:

function GetRearCameraPosition(iType)

local p = CockpitLocalPoint[iType]

local r = {}

r[1] = p[1] - 14.1

r[2] = p[2] - 2.5

r[3] = - 5.0

return r[1], r[2], r[3]

 

The values you see now are differnet then the ones in ur file...These ones would be under the wing (view on missile) like in my movie.

r[1] - [r3] are basiclly x,y and z coordinates wich you can change like you want.

 

This one for example would be below the plane in the center like in the beginning of my movie:

 

 

function GetRearCameraPosition(iType)

local p = CockpitLocalPoint[iType]

local r = {}

r[1] = p[1] - 0.1

r[2] = p[2] - 2.5

r[3] = 0.0

return r[1], r[2], r[3]

 

Play around with it until you find the best view you like:)

Backup the original file!

 

If those arent the views you are looking for just play around with the numbers. I takes a bit but you should get it figured out.

good luck
