follow-along camera in TMO???

[UdiHrant]

After installing TMO I cannot get any extenal camera views except the free-camera - in other words I have to chase my boat using the arrow keys to admire her. The ',' and '.' buttons which I think should choose next and previous vessel do nothing. Yes sir - I have the 'no external view' box unchecked...

Thanks for any help.

That is because the camera has been unlocked. You can also now get closer to ships with it, actually move through the ships. Much better. The bridge camera (F4) still locks to the ship, and you can move that all over the place with the arrow keys. It's a little on the slow moving side, but still a very cool way to explore your boat.

The next/previous unit cameras were disabled in TMO. You can turn them back on by editing the command configuration file.

Disable TMO, edit MODS\TriggerMaru_Overhaul_19\Data\Cfg\Commands.cfg (in notepad, or your favorite text editor), and enable TMO again.

Find this section:

[Cmd50]
Name=Camera_on_next_unit
Ctxt=1
;Key0=0xBE,,">"
Page=0x34000000,3714

[Cmd51]
Name=Camera_on_prev_unit
Ctxt=1
;Key0=0xBC,,"<"
Page=0x34000000,3714
and change it to

[Cmd50]
Name=Camera_on_next_unit
Ctxt=1
Key0=0xBE,,">"
Page=0x34000000,3714

[Cmd51]
Name=Camera_on_prev_unit
Ctxt=1
Key0=0xBC,,"<"
Page=0x34000000,3714

(note the ";" has been removed from the two commands)

THANK YOU!!!!!

Also holding down the ENTER key along with an ARROW key will speed up the external camera. Let's you cover large distances quickly.

Capt Dave;
I use the shift and arrow key to get the speeded up effect.

OOPS, it is the Shift key. Sorry, my bad. Thanks Tomoose.
