Firstly, Apologies for resurrecting an old thread.

I'm not what you'd call an SH3 veteran but it's all I know. Though it was bothering me that I'd have to wait three weeks for it to load up every time I wanted to do something in it.

I bought an SH4 disc, and first impressions (v1.5) are good. Though it is taking me some time to fully get to grips with it. I'm too set in my ways with the SH3-way-of-doing-things and am having trouble adjusting.

I've heard that TMO-v2 will make things a whole lot better for me and once I'm home this evening, I'll start downloading it and will hopefully enjoy it like I did with GWX for SH3.

But I too have been hoping to get a bit closer to with the ship-cam so how pleased was I when on page 14 of the SH4 Subsim forums, my faithful trawling paid off and I found this thread linked from another.

Since it doesn't get a mention in the opening post, I feel the need to ask: Will this work with TMO v2 or will the two conflict with each other?

Many thanks,

Rob.

I believe TMO does have it's own version of the file altered in this mod. I suggest you use TMO first, and try its external unit view, then install my mod and try it. You can then go with the one you like best.

I found out there's one major difference: TMO doesn't use the Unit View. You have to edit its Commands.cfg file to use it. The file is in Data\Cfg. Open with Notepad. The part you need to fix is this:

[Cmd50]
Name=Camera_on_next_unit
Ctxt=1
Key0=0xBE,,">"
Page=0x34000000,3714

[Cmd51]
Name=Camera_on_prev_unit
Ctxt=1
Key0=0xBC,,"<"
Page=0x34000000,3714

In TMO, they'll have semicolons [;] in front of each line. Just delete the semicolons and save.
