Ext Camera has goes nuts

STEED · 03-18-07, 06:22 PM

From time to time my ext. camera has a mental breakdown it starts to swing back-wards ans for-wards at a angle out of control and it really is a pain if I want to take a screen shot.

GWX 1.02 with SH3C
Along with a few mods via the JSGM with the only exception of new ships which I place into there locations.

I know what you're talking about. I had the same problem in GW1.1a, GWX 1.00/1.02 as well. Unfortunatelly there is nothing you can do to stop the bloody thing rotating

Just stop your game, save and reload.

It is because you are in Port, and you are looking at Ground Units, such as aircraft are considered ground units. Try not to use the external cam within port, use the Free Cam instead.

I have had this happen at sea, it just sort of freaks-out

Same here. I had this situation in open waters actually and never in port (or even close to it)

In port at sea make no differences at all. It's a pain in the ar*e.

This happens to me somethings, But only when im close to an enemy port and there are Land units like searchlights or coastal bunkers. Like i'll be approaching a harbor and i'll get a radar contact and i can view the ships but once my WO spots a land unit the Ex, Camera goes mental. Anyone got any idea wat happens.
O yeah im using TGW1.1a
