Default [REQ] Camera Clipping Mod

Hi there.
I'm looking for a way to change the clipping and collision range of the free camera. I'd like to zoom more on units to get a feeling like beeing on deck of the ship and seeing everything (would like to use it for a video).
Unfortunately the camera can't get nearer than about 20m to the ship...
Does anybody know about a way or a mod to turn clipping and collision of the camera off?

I dont know either has anybody tried snagging the cam dat
from vanilla yet and putting it into 1.2? because I think
if you did it would give you back the external deck cam.
M:hmm:

Beery did some stuff with RFB with the cameras, not exactly what you are asking though.

He may respond to this, as well Mav87 did some stuff with the cameras.

Welcome by the way.

I have mine set to 0m...its not actually 0 but its as close as you can get using the free cam.

If you load up the minitweaker with the Cam tweak file and set the "TerrainColider Radius" to 0 you will get as close as you can get...AFAIK



Small tut on how to use the Minitweaker if you never did it before

The links to the latest Cam Tweakfile and the minitweaker maybe someone could link to...can't seem to find them at the mo :p

You will still not be able to "fly around" on the deck and stuff but you will get closer then stock, thats for sure.
