JaNk0 Posted January 7, 2006 Posted January 7, 2006 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 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
warthogmadman987 Posted January 7, 2006 Posted January 7, 2006 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
