Capt Posn on conning tower

[Shepelly]

Hey Guy's, This has been mentioned before, but I could find any answer to it.

Is there any way of placing the position of the Capt (player) on the conning tower more to the front, so you almost have to look down to the UZO, and you can see the deck gun and more of the nose of the Boat?:hmm:

Or have it slightly off to the right of the Uzo at the front?

Also whilst I'm here, Flag on the Sub pole that dissapears when you dive like the radio ring I know I keep harping on this but it would be great to have

Back to you.

Moin,

I´ve checked the *.cam file structure and found the position to alter the viewpoint. If you tell what sub type and conning tower you, use I could relocate it for you.

DD

Flag on the Sub pole that dissapears

I don't remember any real U-Boot where the crew lovingly stored the fag before diving, specially when an enemy aircraft was diving on them

But don't worry, the flag will not wear out from the salt water of the game. Wait, do we need a mod also for that?:hmm:



J joking---couldn't resist

DD, I'm in a VIIc with a type 1 conning tower (1939/40)

And if you could tell me how to do it so I could mod the conning towers as I advance would be great to, if its not to difficult:hmm:

Thanks Diving Duck (Edit) I'll have to stop calling you DD, I just noticed theres a BilgeRat with those initials

Hitman I don't care if it dissapears or stay's, but just to have the flag would be great.

Hello DivingDuck,

looks interesting. I would be interested in knowing it too, if you don't mind. Do you possibly have an adapted mini tweaker file or do you use an hex editor?

Shepelly,

How did you go with this? :hmm:

[Shepelly]

Still waiting for Diving Duck to reply Mate.

[DivingDuck]

Moin,

here it is:



Open the Turm.cam you want to edit with any hex editor and change the highlighted values.

• x moves left - right
• y moves up - down
• z moves forward - aft

The values have to be in float(32) format.

DD

Thanks Diving Duck, I've never used this before but Have the programme and will give it a go now:hmm:

[Shepelly]

Diving Duck, is that the NSS_Uboat7_CT? I made the changes and lost my command periscope view

[DivingDuck]

Moin Shepelly,

the screen was made from a typeII CT *.cam file. So, don´t copy and paste the values you see here. When back at home I´ll give you some values that fit. Make sure not to change the NSS_Uboat7_CT.cam but the Turm7c_??.cam file. This file is located in \data\objects\...

There is more than 1 InitialLocalPos entry. Make sure you´ve changed the right one, or I did a mistake highlihting the wrong one. I´ll check it asap.

Regards,
DD

Thanks Mate, I'll double check and see what happens

Found the TURM7C_CAM file and await your values.

Thanks,
Shepelly.
