CameraMod v.2.0 (User Edition)

[CCIP]

Alright, here is an update - hopefully the final one - for my camera mod.

http://rapidshare.de/files/3821356/C..._v2.0.zip.html

It should appeal to the FreeCam abusers and high-realism players alike, as it removes many of the restrictive limits on angles and heights of cameras, inside and outside.

It's fully compatible with RUb and all other mods I currently know of.

New to this edition are removed limits from Conning Tower, Attack Periscope, Deck and Flak Gun (view only - not firing) rotation angles; and two new options for Free Camera angles (you can now choose from 25, 50 and 75 for your free camera FOV, depending on your preference).

Mod by CCIP, tools by TimeTraveller.

Version 2, August 9 2005.

***

FEATURES:

Free Camera
- narrower angle (for better sense of scale and less distortion at screen edges)
- finer rotation control
- faster movement speed with "shift"
- height limit increased to 2000m (from only 70 before!)
(UPDATED FOR VERSION 2)
- Default FOV angle changed to 50 (from 57.265 in v1)
- Two alternative files included for High (75 - unmodded game setting) and Low (25 - zoomed-in!) FOV settings.

Follow Object Camera
-slightly narrower angle

Conning Deck Camera
-no more small downward limit! (you can look down to the floor if you want to now)
-a much more "3D" camera, thanks to shifting it a little off the center of rotation

Crew Position Cameras and Captain's Bed
-no more rotation limits (except upside down)
-a more "3D" camera

Conning Tower and Attack Periscope Cameras (new in v.2)
-no more rotation limits (except upside down)

Flak and Deck Gun Cameras
-up/down restrictions removed for the view - but although you can look around freely,
this does not affect the guns' minimum/maximum depression angles (in other words, you still
can't shoot your WO, even if you'd like to).

***

INSTALLATION:

Recommended setting:
-Place Cameras.dat to your SilentHunterIII/data/Library folder.

If you would like the High or Low FOV free camera:
-Rename the file of your choice (FOV Hi - Cameras.dat or FOV Low Cameras.dat) to Cameras.dat,
and place it in your SilentHunterIII/data/Library folder.

=> Don't forget to backup your original Cameras.dat file just in case -
but make sure you move the backup out of the Library folder (even if you renamed it!)
