Default "Torpedo Cam"

So far I haven't seen any evidence in SH5 of the "torpedo cam" view in SH3 that follows your torpedo on the way to its target.

Is it missing, or is there even a mod for it?

IIRC the stock game files don't include the controller needed for the camera to follow the torpedo to target in event camera.

It's in the game options under 'Event Camera'. Make sure it's set to on in the bunker or you won't get it. You get the same little window you got in SH4, if you click on it it goes fullscreen. It shows torps, sinkings, close depth charge attacks and aircraft attacks, just as it did in SH4.

Works fine for me when set to 'on' in bunker.

Thanks Orpheus. Nice to know it's still in there, though rather hidden.

I assume your reference to the bunker refers to when one is in port in the sub pen?

Sorry to resurrect a two year old thread but...
"You get the same little window you got in SH4".

I never played this and can't seem to find it when a torpedo is launched. I have unticked the event camera option?

You need to tick the box, while in the bunker, then start patrol.

its better to resurrect an old thread then start another new one so no harm done

it just bugs us when someone resurrects a very old mod thread looking for an updated link for it because often the mod is outdated and no longer applies to the present game or that the author has left the community so there is no one to give a reply.

even though it bugs us sometimes, there is still nothing wrong with asking for old mods.

people that have been around a while often get bugged by things that really shouldn't bug them so every situation is different
