Ah, one more broken link for British boats. I just realized that Addititional Merchants part2 is also missing on the site. After changing the internet provider, I used the backup copy of my site but obviously it was not the latest version.

Binoculars Azimuth missing in new Cameras.dat
Hi Serg
I found something that might be a problem (at least to me) in the Cameras.dat file. In Binoculars view, there's no counting of the azimuth - i.e. no matter in which direction you point the binocs, the azimuth counter stays on zero (0). Checking the file with S3D, I found there is no azimuth (named Azimunth in the file) entry under the 172 node Dummy_Cam_Binocular. I think this is an effect of the fact that there is no RestrictedRotation node, as binocs are no longer restricted. Still it would be handy to know the azimuth/direction you're looking at through binocs. Is there any fix to this? Also there is no node for UZO, or is it? |

I think the missing azimuth is a great side effect to the cool free cam.
The de-stabilized Bino are great i give sme a bein there feel. Stormy sea ahoy!

Destabilized binoculars.
One of the things I missed from SH2 was looking at the moon through the binoculars and having to move them back and forth to keep it in the field of view. Sergei, I've always said you were a genius, but I'll say it again just so you can hear it: YOU'RE A ****** GENIUS! p.s. Love the idea of walking around the conning tower, too.

Thank you, Steve.
As a former SH2 player I also missed destabilized binoculars in SH3 from the beginning and wanted to look into this problem and other modifications of cameras but was dragged into importing the new units to SH3. After switching to SH4 which already comes with a decent coverage of main units and exellent visuals, I finally had an opportunity and stimulus to look into the camera modifications in an attempt to get a free walk through the sub. When working on that I came across the solution for destabilized binoculars. Since in SH4 they can be destabilized by simply checking the appropriate option, the solution was applied to SH3 where such an option does not work for binoculars. It is pity that this solution was found too late. |

Sweet!
One suggestion, could this mod be intergrated with NVDrifter's excellent Depth Charge Shake Mod? I believe it also uses Cameras.dat. I want to install the Camera mod but would hate to lose the shaking effects.... P.S.: How do you activate the free camera in the conning tower? |

I am not familiar with the Depth Charge Shake Mod but my guess is that only some values for regular parameters were changed by this mod in Cameras.dat. It shoud not be difficult to identify those with help of the S3D editor by opening and comparing two files. Do not hesitate to use it.
On the other hand, someone has already complained to me that it is inconvenient to use hydrophone after the depth charge attack in my mod because it is shaking too much. |
