After I installed his Cameras tweak I had to turn my cpu totally off and back on again to make it work because it appeared the old camera data was still in memory. I know that sounds strange but it was the only way I found to get the camera to reset.

I'm using a 1920x1200 rez screen and his tweak works for me.

Great! thanks for pointing this out - I'd missed this one - didn't realize it also fixed the opening view tilt problem. Loaded it up and it looks great, as the shot below shows:



I haven't had a chance to inspect all the changes to see what it was about Anvart's tweaks that fixed this problem, but it works just fine at 1280x960 too - great job guys

BTW - I used JSGME to install the cameras.dat file for my tests, and I haven't seen a problem with having to restart my computer or having the game not recognize the changes (unless I've forgotten to get rid of the "copy of" file).

[edit] PS - I noticed that screenshot still had you pretty far away from the screen, so I later changed the AngularAngle setting for the radar room in Anvart's file from 75 to 65, and it works great - get's you really up close and personal with the scope screen yet still leaves all the buttons/knobs usable (at least at 1280x960 anyway).
