Yet another cool Beery idea! Looks great!

I'm not sure what to look for in order to do that. If I knew the variable to look for I'd be on it like a shot. :up:

As for it being just as easy, hehe I hope it wouldn't be the same level of easy - getting the mod to give the right maximum height took me something like 5 hours yesterday, LOL. Of course now I'm a bit more familiar with the way the info is arranged it should be a lot easier next time.

Actually I just found the number that controls the camera's ability to get close to objects. The only problem is that it affects the free camera's load time a bit if you set it too close. I'm going to play around with it a bit and see what I can come up with. I think I'll probably set it to about 6ft so that we can get a person's eye view from beaches, docks, etc.

Just wanted to say thanks man :D I zoomed out so far I could make out the curvature of the Earth :D

Excellent piece of work.

Okay, hehe that didn't take long at all. Only 40 minutes.

Here's the new camera: http://www.beerymod.com/SH4/BeeryCamera2.7z

This one goes up to the maximum height (2000m) and gets to within 1.8m of any object. So we can now stand eye-to-eye with the folks walking around at the bases.

Hehe, what a difference it makes knowing what the numbers mean.

Bloody hell, that's beautiful.
 

Outstanding job, Beery.

Great work Beery, thanks...was waiting for v2 :up:

Hehe I love that smiley. Never seen that one before. Where did you find that? Not sure I deserve the crown, but the minions worshipping - I can live with that. :-j

Great ! many thanks ! :up:

Hm small prob...not sure if it is related. When i hit Shift+F2(free cam on that station) the cam just start going off by itself...mostly backward it seems...have not tried without this mod ( I guess I should have before speaking)

If you're on the bridge the Shift+F2 free camera will do that. It does it in the stock game too.

Ahhh ok, cheers Beery.

Outstanding Beery! Thanks for all that time you spent. I just downloaded this and will give it a try in a few minutes. I wanted to zoom in much closer and so this sounds like it will do the job.

Also, I saw that you have your site www.beerymod.com. Does your site have a SH4 page for your new mods?

Thanks again mate!

Not yet. My web publishing software is still suffering ill effects from the recent system crash I had where I had to re-install Windows. I'm considering whether to re-install it or buy another (better) web publishing program. In the meantime I'll just keep hosting the mods there and advertising them here.

Ah.. Ok.

Well I just tried this mod and it is nice to be able to zoom in and out so much more.

I now see that it only works for the F11 Free Camera view, but not the Unit View. If you ever get it to work for the Unit Camera as well, that would be fantastic!

Great work!
