External views ?

[ssimon]

Hi all,

I've searched the forum for an answer to my following question to no avail. I hope somebody can help me.

I've installed the some mods and in game I'm unable to use the cycle cam option (next or previous ship, yep I know I'm a noob ), although the no external view option is not ticked in the options menu. Is this some kind of reality limitation implemented by any of the installed mods ??

Order of install.

TMO1.7
RSRDC V400
RSDRC Patch 2A
OpsMonsun_V700
OM_V700_Patch3

I've tried to modify the commands.cfg. Was set to keys '<' and '>' and now its ',' and '.' But nothing happens when I click the keys. F12 does activate external view.

Thanks a lot for your help.

best regards
Alex

From the Trigger read me:

11.) How do i get the next/ previous camera back?

The easiest way is to open the /data/cfg/commands.cfg in TMO. Search for " [Cmd50] " Your looking for these two blocks:


[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

Simply remove the semicolon placed in front of the key assignment, and you have the next/previous cameras back. Note: this will restore hotkeys. It will not restore the buttons on the ordersbar.

By the way, welcome to SUBSIM!

WELCOME ABOARD!

Getting old, huh? Welcome to the club. We have almost as many old farts here as kids.

WELCOME ABOARD.

Another old fart here, If you live long enough to regret a few things in life, then you can smile at how much you enjoyed doing them. Puts

I've been playing for 3 years now and I still do that...mostly now because my U-boats radar isn't working even though it should!!
