Hiya,
Goto Data folder then Cfg then open Gameplaysettings.cfg with notepad

Find the noexternalview = true change true to false

Ohh also do the same in your docs folder in the gameplaysettings.cfg

And i can't rem if it only kicks in at port or new career

Ciao

Have Fun

Hiya,
Well i use 100% now, But with row etc i did like to get nice external camera shots so i used to alter the tm no external view solely to take snaps

Now i don't bother with external views and run 100% realistic

Ciao

I think we're screwed dude.

You running any other mods? Something MUST be overlapping. I set all the config files and sure enough every time they reset to false.

Have you tried starting a new campaign with the external cam set to on?

Hiya's,
Try deleting the sh4 folder in my docs then redo cfg to enable ext view then start new career

Or wait until you've done with present career

ps: As you delete sh4 folder in my docs, You lose res etc in sh4 graphics options etc, Do the above then load sh4 and sort settings n save, then exit sh4 then check cfg and ammend if needed then go and start new career

Ciao

No views until the Japs surrender I guess.

Good way to motivate one's self.

Default Graphics problems

As posted in this thread:

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=133495

By running sub school (and not any saved games), I've definitely confirmed that it is a TM issue, in combination with whatever possible Vista related bugs and/or video driver issues I have on this machine. Rolling it back to stock I got the usual pretty partly-cloudy blue/white skies, reinstalling TM, I got the bleached-out look again. It "switched" to this halfway through my last patrol and has been persistent ever since. I'll try updating the video driver next and pray that works.

Thanks.
Hi, Harr1er, and WELCOME ABOARD!

I can't actually run the game, so I can't help; but it looks like your post is getting lost in the shuffle, so I thought I'd bump it so you can get some help.

I'm just jumping into this thread . . . but had a similar problem with the externals. But then I noticed that when I created a new campaign the OPTIONS were reset. Have you looked at your option settings from the Captains desk while in the campaign (before you start the mission)? Make sure the Disable Externals tickbox is not checked.

Yeah yeah . . I know it sounds silly . . but start easy.

I found that even though you may have set this at the MAIN options screen, the Campaign has its own default settings and will override those. When you start "tweeking n peekin" cfg and ini files . . . ya never know how many you actually have to touch in order to make something occur.

Yeah.... did this. I check the box to enable external views. I start up the game... no external views... I end the game and got to the main menu, the box is checked for no external views again.
Ugh!

I'm starting a new campaign tonight... I'l let y'all know if it fixed.

I tried deleting the SH4 directory and then verified that the cfg gamesettings file had external camera enabled. I started the game up and checked the options so that no external camera was left UNCHECKED.

I started a new campaign.

I hit the movie camera icon on the tray and nothing happens. It's still stuck on no external camera.

I tried uninstalling TM in the generic mod enabler to see if it was specific to that mod. I did all the previous steps over again and started a new campaign. Still no external camera.

Could another mod be doing it? Do I have to completely uninstall the program and reinstall?

Solved the problem.

I did a full reinstall but probably didn't need to....

When you start a new campaign make damn sure you choose "EASY" or you'll never get your external views back. It overides whatever settings you chose in the previous menu.


One mystery solved.
